Larp is a co-operative form of make-believe. It sits somewhere between improvisational theatre and a grown-up playground game of ‘let’s pretend’ with higher production values. There are many forms of larp, from huge fantasy games with complex rules and thousands of players, to small experimental art events played in theatre spaces.

 

Larp is not theatre; there is no audience. Instead, participants take on the role of characters within the larp and act, speak, and behave as those characters for the duration of the event. The story unfolds organically, shaped by the actions or in-actions of the participants.
