usernamenumberIf anyone in the area larps or has considered trying it out but hasn't played in The Last Seder, the game will be running on 7/24, and still needs players.
TLS is very different from your average game in a lot of ways, but I really enjoyed playing in it. It is a re-telling of the story of the last supper, told in a dystopian future setting. This caused me to approach it with some trepidation because, to me, that's sensitive subject matter, but IMO it's handled in a way that is neither disrespectful nor preachy.
I suspect it might actually be a good first game if anyone is curious. It uses the telling of "parables" to periodically break from the main setting by having the cast play out small roles in the sub-story each parable represents, adding some variety to the characters one gets to play, and because it very linear and structured plot-wise. In other words, it's the story of the last supper, and you don't get to change the ending. What's important is the role-play between A and B, so in that sense it could be a relatively straightforward first dive into the genre.
In any case, signup sheet is here, and more information is here.
