MB Stage Productions Announces The Final Workshop Of TABLETOP THE MUSICAL Returning This November For Three Weeks Only!

What is creative producing without multiclassing? Katie Lynn Mapel flexes her proficiency in casting, David Evan Stolworthy dons his dramaturgical red pen, and Jared Tyrel Pixler partners with (staged!) combatant Marc Leclerc to create fights that would leave barbarians blushing. Joining the MB Stage Productions party is dance choreographer with true bardic inspiration, Kelsey Sundman!

Tickets are on sale now!

A love letter to TTRPGs, Tabletop The Musical is a heartwarming, dungeon-delving good time - reminding us that we don't have to live in a world of fantasy to find the life we are searching for.

Eric and his friends gather weekly at the local game shop to play their favorite tabletop roleplaying game. It's the start of a fresh campaign, and the party is ready to roll initiative until a new player joins the fray. It isn't long before the party faces their own critical failures and finds support in one another before dark forces destroy more than the land of Vaelrune. In its final workshop stages, Tabletop The Musical addresses the importance of being true to oneself, the toxicity of gatekeeping culture, and the necessity for fantasy when reality deals a fatal blow.

Tabletop The Musical is a love letter to a historically misunderstood pastime, presented in a medium that has touched people for generations. It's a show about Tabletop RPGs, an activity that brings people together in a way that nothing else can by allowing people to create, laugh, love, cry, and experiment with life in a safe and comfortable environment.

Tabletop The Musical has been in development for over 8 years, evolving from 5 friends reading a one-act play in Chad's game room through several staged readings, cabarets, and an encore-winning run at Fringe Festival 2019. The reception and support so far have been incredible, reaching beyond friends and family to actors, writers, and producers all over Los Angeles to participate in read-throughs, talk-back sessions, dramaturgical discussions, harmony workshops, and countless other forms of inspirational help. Over 100 people have been involved in the process thus far, dedicating their time, emotions, ideas, and money to get Tabletop The Musical to where it is today.
