Background

Sarabande is a scenario originally created for Fastaval 2013. It has been run in Denmark, Sweden, Norway, England, Texas (and soon Lithuania and France).

It is an expressionistic Larp focusing on the use of repetition, non-linear time and the use of art as communication. It is set in a French café on Montmartre at the end of the 19th century where twelve persons meet every day– all entangled in issues of love, beauty, freedom and truth. Day after day they live out these issues through their art, trying desperately to break free or to find that one true love.

Sarabande is a larp in the Nordic tradition, and more information about its aims and construction can be found here.
