Upcoming LARPs

Torch of Freedom

BY Bruce Glassco
November 7-9, 2008
Location: RPI

Welcome to Petronia, an Eastern European country in the mid-nineteenth century. The Regent has raised taxes, arrested dissidents, and made the rightful Princess a virtual prisoner within the palace. Saturday evening he will marry her. Sunday they will be crowned king and queen together, and his grip on the kingdom will be virtually assured. In the wineshops near the University and the wretched slums of the nation's capital, however, an atmosphere of unrest has begun to build...

"As long as there is a lower class of people, I am in it. As long as there is a criminal class, I am of it. As long as there is a soul in prison, I am not free." -- Eugene Debs

In 1848, a wave of revolutions for the cause of Liberty swept across Europe. Every single one of them failed.

This is not the story of those revolutions. This is the story of how one of those revolutions might have occurred if it had been filmed in Hollywood starring Errol Flynn and Basil Rathbone, if masked avengers had prowled the rooftops of the capitol, and if everyone carried rapiers.

"We are sleeping on a volcano....A wind of revolution blows, the storm is on the horizon." -- Alexis de Tocqueville, 1848

Lullaby of Broadway: Episode 1 Encore

BY Mike Young
February 6-8, 2009
Location: Brandeis

Foam Brain Productions is proud to present an encore run of Episode 1 of Lullaby of Broadway: Another Openin' Another Show.

Lullaby of Broadway is three episode series of stand-alone weekend long LARPs that are all based on well known Broadway musicals, run in a style similar to Shakespeare's Lost Play. There will be no continuity of plot or characters between the episodes, just a general theme of singing and dancing.

Lullaby of Broadway is different than weekend long games you've played in the past - in exchange for a certain loss of the self-determination you may be used to in LARPs, we promise to give you lots of great roleplaying opertunities, exciting plots and experiences, and maybe a chance to sing and dance.

Note that you will never be forced to perform on stage, but opertunities will be available to anyone who would like to.

Because of the high cost of props and set pieces in this game, Foam Brain is asking that people either help contribute to these things, or for a suggested donation of $15 to play in Episode 1.

Another Openin' Another Show is based on such beloved Broadway classics as:

Annie
Annie Get Your Gun
Bye Bye Birdie
Guys and Dolls
Hello, Dolly!
Kiss Me Kate
My Fair Lady
The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee
The Music Man
The Drowsy Chaperone
The Producers
You're A Good Man Charlie Brown
