You are part of a traveling troupe of actors who make a living putting on plays and improvisational performances for the enjoyment and edification of the masses. Unfortunately, you've been struggling with finances as of late. The people just don't seem to appreciate the theatre like they used to.
Mere hours before the scheduled performance, the proprietor of the venue informs you that a Very Important Person is likely to be in attendance and has specifically requested an "interpretation" of The Life, Death, and Apotheosis of Bastard Jim. While not one of you is a stranger to Bastard Jim (what thespian worth their salt wasn't raised on this grand tradition?), it isn't exactly your troupe's specialty. You have a set amount of time to put the performance together and put it on in front of a live audience.
This LARP is in two parts. The first part, for 8 players, is dedicated to preparing the performance. Players are invited to bring a variety of costuming, including masks, from home to share with each other.
The second part, 2.5 hours after start, is actually performing the play. Up to 10 additional Con-goers are invited to watch the (brief) performance in character and will receive prompts on their characters at the door. Fancy theatre-going costumes of all eras are welcome for the audience role.
