Beschreibung
Welcome to Los Angeles 1980
Inspired by Glow, a Netflix tv series. The larp is set in the United States in 1980, at the very beginning of production for the first women’s wrestling television show in history. The casting process is over and the performers have already earned a place in the project, but almost everything else is still uncertain.
Until now, wrestling has been understood mostly as a men’s world: a space of masculine strength, aggression, spectacle, and theatrical violence. This production is trying to do something almost unheard of: build an entire television program around women as fighters and stars of the show.
It is not only the story of the women in the ring. It is also the story of the people building the show around them: the staff trying to turn chaos into television, the trainers making sure spectacle looks dangerous but remains survivable, the producers risking money and reputation, and the TV executives deciding what kind of women can be sold to an audience.
Around them, the country is also changing. In 1980, feminism in the United States is facing both momentum and backlash. Women are fighting for workplace equality, legal independence, reproductive rights, representation, and the right to define their lives beyond marriage and motherhood, while conservative voices are gaining power and defending traditional family values.
