The players were told to play badly, break the drama and avoid creating a narrative. Characters were improvised during a warm-up workshop before play, all players were part of a codependent master-servant coupling and based on various archetypes. They also received techniques for creating absurd dialogue. <br /> <br /> The game itself was played in three 45 minute acts laid out by a soundtrack and during each a lighting tech interacted with the play through the use of spotlighting and darkness. In the three acts each couple played on a particular theme drawn from a hat.<br /> <br /> The game was rerun at Larpvíkend in Brno in 2014.<br /> [[Category:Larps]]<br /> [[Category:Larps from Denmark]]<br /> [[Category:2012 larps]]<br /> [[Category:Chamber larps]]<br /> [[Category:Chamber larps from Denmark]]<br /> [[Category:2012 chamber larps]]</div>
