Description

It is 6th of August in 1945, and the world is never going to be the same again. 6th of August is a two-part larp that explores the atomic bombing of Hiroshima from two viewpoints. Part II: Earth focuses on people on the ground who are living their last morning. No one knows what is going to happen. People are waking up to a normal morning. Someone is leaving for work, another for the marketplace to see if there is rice for sale somewhere or at least something for a dinner. They make plans for today, for the next week, next month.

Other things to note: This is the second part of a two-part larp 6th of August. Participants are expected to take part also in part I: Sky where they take the roles of a bombing crew.
