Audiences are being invited to join critically-acclaimed Harrogate and Leeds based Forget About The Dog theatre company this week for what has been described as a Black Mirror meets Monty Python meets Jumanji adventure, exploring happiness, friendship and the role of technology.

Happy Place, which is touring this spring/summer is supported by Harrogate Theatre and the show is coming to the town this week after a successful run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2022.

A mix of outrageous comedy, puppetry, physical theatre and live music, this comedic show comments on society’s perception of what it means to be happy in a world where technology continues to evolve.
