Beskrivning

Styles of Play: freeform larp, streaming/online face to face, tabletop/pencil & paper

Metaphorphosis is a 60-minute freeform larp for anyone who wants to explore how we translate our inner worlds and how in turn, the people we love hear us and learn who we are.

Four players portray the chosen family of Aunt Dorian, a beloved queer elder who passed away, leaving behind a poem. In an extended metaphor, Dorian describes their experience of coming out and embracing their queer identity using the metamorphosis of a moth. Players come together over the poem and translate it into a description of the events, relationships, and emotions Dorian is writing about, hopefully gaining understanding and closure in the process.

The game's goals are to build empathy for queer and neurodivergent people for whom traditional channels and methods of communication and storytelling may not be accessible, and to explore novel, subversive perspectives on legacy and loss outside those offered by heteronormative biological family tropes.
