Pop Up Playground - Trial Show

7th Mar 2012

Presenter: Pop Up Playground
Website: http://popupplayground.com.au/
Event Duration: 60 minutes

A secret killer has infiltrated the inner circle of your society: a werewolf on the village council, an evil traitor among the mightiest heroes, a shapeshifting alien replacing a top agent... It might even be the leader of your faction. Will you find them out? Or will they get you first?

Pop Up Playground is coming to the 2012 Melbourne International Comedy Festival - and here's you chance to be the first to play our newest game. It's a new twist on the classic Werewolf which you'll play alongside some of your favourite comedians. The game is based on accusation and argument; playing in groups including our guests stars, you'll seek out the killers and traitors and condemn them to gruesome death.  Of course, your own leader might be one of the traitors - in which case, you'd better hope they're a terrible liar, or you'll be helping them destroy your community from within...

Pop Up Playground are Robert Reid (theatremaker, The Joy of Text), Sayraphim Lothian (curator, Omnific Assembly), Paul Callaghan (writer and game developer) and Ben McKenzie (comedian, Dungeon Crawl). Come and play with us in 2012!
