THE TWENTY-SIDED TAVERN Comes to Edinburgh Fringe in August
The Twenty Sided-Tavern plays at Pleasance King Dome (venue 23) from August 3.
Inspired by the gameplay of Dungeons and Dragons, this hilarious adventure is never the same tale twice as audience members control the story from the palm of their hands.
Created and performed by a team whose experience spans across Broadway (including a Tony nomination), writing, software design, and of course, lots of game play it's probably no surprise that this is a show that has had sell out kill-for-a-ticket shows in New York, Philadelphia, and Pittsburgh, and is now making its Edinburgh premier.
The Twenty-Sided Tavern combines a dynamic story and real-time tech to create audience-led engagement like never before. The paths the audience choose and the hilarious outcomes of their decisions allow each performance to be entirely unique.
Using a web-based design by Gamiotics means audiences access a website on their phone via QR code on entering the venue (no apps to download and no space taken up on phones). During the show, audiences make choices on their screens, and these real-time decisions inform the actions of the actors onstage. With so many branching paths and potential outcomes, audiences can create one of literally thousands of scenarios. Each show is different to the next.
This adventure is suitable for audiences eight and up and is destined to delight everyone from hardcore fans of D&D to those just dipping a toe into the world of role-playing games.
