This item covers the creation of a larp concept based on theatrical characters and both the concept and its application in "The Bard's Tale" larp Beta Run, which took place October 13th, 2023. The intent is to share the design and concept not just of the Shakesperean version of it, but also the broader concept and its uses.

Imagine walking into a garden, stepping out of this world into a place where Romeo is wooing Juliet to your right, and Bottom is being thrilled by Titania to your left, while Claudio and Hero are arguing about loyalty in front of you... and you just took three steps...

We know we have not invented the wheel, but ours has spinning rims.

Expect a few minutes of theatrical representation at the beginning, just to intro the concept. Not too loud, aside from voice projection.
