Description

Mother’s Heart is a Kafkaesque drama about a court’s questioning and prosecuting of mothers about their sub-par parenting skills. This larp takes place in a courtroom setting with prosecutors, defendants and an unlimited number of people acting as witnesses. A participating audience –the peanut gallery– is also present, making the larp a good introduction for non-larpers/spectators. This is a larp which questions our societal systems, social interactions and the consequences of expressing random judgements.

“You´re all alone and nobody told you why you´re even there. A table divides you. The only thing you know is that you´re on the wrong side of it. Or if you´re behind the table, safe and sound, then you know you´re RIGHT.

Everyone has an opinion about what a good mother is.
In this court everybody is entitled to an opinion., except for the mother.”
