Welcome to Weybridge: a washed out, half-empty space station and tourist trap at the edge of the galaxy. Nothing exciting has ever happened here – until now.

For the first time in history, an alien race has chosen to make contact with humanity – right here. These as-yet-unseen beings are expecting to be greeted by the best and brightest of the human race – and presidents, royals, religious leaders, tycoons and diplomats are descending on Weybridge.

Well, that was the plan. But something has gone wrong with the wormhole. And the only people actually on the station are a bunch of cranks, tourists, conspiracy theorists and space hobos – and you.

Improvise Wildly! Negotiate for the future of the species! Don’t panic!

Tagline: A sci-fi political farce: ‘In The Loop’ in space.

When: Saturday 17.00 – 21.00. (Be in the Lounge at least 15 minutes before.)

A scenario about improvising badly, for everyone who has ever been scared to larp because they think they’re bad at improvisiny!

The first galactic summit between a mysterious alien species and the great and good of the human race is due to take place on a janky little space station. Unfortunately, there’s been an accident, and the great and good of the human race have not shown up. You are a tourist, a drifter, a space weirdo with a menial job on the station, a drunk, a criminal or all of the above. Together you must negotiate for the future of your species. The conference starts in ten minutes. Good luck.
