WHAT IS A “PARLOUR LARP”?

Parlour LARP, also known as freeform LARPs, are theatre-driven, non-combat games designed for collaborative story-telling that can include, but is not limited to, a classroom-sized amount of players. Its format is similar to Dungeons & Dragons (minus the table-top aspect) and is featured in movies such as ‘Role Models’ (2008) and the occasional episode of ‘Supernatural’ (2013).

HOW DO I GET INVOLVED? It’s as easy as 1...2...3...PLAY ON!
