Reunion: Run 3

Dirty Laundry were the hardest-living of rock bands, whose wild shenanigans were more than a match for their incandescent performances. Indigo Crush were the slickest of manufactured pop outfits, with a charming kids-next-door image to complement their chirpy and catchy tunes. Both had their peak of success 25 years ago – before it all went wrong.

​Now, they’ve been gathered together by their record company, Zenith, at a quiet country house. The plan is for a reunion tour with both bands together, to tap into two very different but equally nostalgic fanbases. But for that to happen, there are going to need to be some conversations – some airing of old grievances, some opening-up of wounds, some skeletons coming out of cupboards. Who did what to whom, and why? Where did the money go? Can we even still talk to each other? Was it ever really about the music?
This larp is designed to portray authentic middle-aged characters in the present day, designed in collaboration with the participants. The themes of this larp include aging, regrets, changes, memory, joy, and freedom. Reunion also explores self-discovery, self-acceptance, and how one’s past can shape one’s future: and the possible tension between public image and private reality.
