Give me your hands, if we be friends,
And Robin shall restore amends.

A Play Toward is a joint project written by Erin Marsh and Jon Fry
You can contact us at aplaytowardlarp@gmail.com
We have taken inspiration from a wide range of places, particularly:
Plays
A Midsummer Night's Dream, Shakespeare (obviously)
Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead, Tom Stoppard
Noises Off, Michael Frayn
The Play That Goes Wrong, Mischief Theatre
Our Country’s Good, Timberlake Wertenbaker
LARPs
There's been a great surge of new games about theatre and Shakespeare over the past year or so, and though the seeds of A Play Toward came from elsewhere these have definitely been an important source of inspiration and encouragement:
The Play's The Thing, Cat Prescott
The Bard's Tale, Pedro Rodríguez Marin, soon to be produced in the UK by LarpX
Do You Hear The People Sing?, Alex Helm
No epilogue, I pray you; for your play needs no excuse.
