A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to ToonTown

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to ToonTown is a pre-written, ready to run, boxed larp (live action roleplay)  set at an animation studio in 1938 for 17-21 players over 4 hours. The players play animators, writers, and long-suffering executives who have been locked in a studio as they try to finish their next big cartoon. 

This is a sincere larp about silly people. It will largely be light-hearted and funny, with moments of genuine poignancy. Come prepared to laugh and have feelings.

Your characters are making a cartoon, but that does not mean you have to be an artist! You're welcome to draw, or not!, as you prefer. Game time will be divided between a gamified making of cartoon, office politics, and goofing off.

Content Warnings

Content warnings include period-appropriate sexism and homophobia, illness, mention of Nazis & war, and financial troubles typical to the Great Depression. The sexism and homophobia will be background radiation more than play.
