It’s 1932. At Château Dupré, a peaceful French country house. A cast and crew are assembled for the making of the film ‘Stolen Moments’. They are waiting for their director to arrive.

On Location is a 'boutique larp' – a small-scale one-off event, with a vision of glamour, drama, and comfort. We reckon that your character will be better able to be tormented by emotional and existential angst, if you as a player are warm, well-fed, and sleeping comfortably.

key information
Language
On Location will be played and organized in English, and you will need to have a conversational level of English to take part. The organisers also speak fluent French however and, based on this first run in France, we will explore the possibility of running a second event in the same location in French.
The characters can come from the France, or elsewhere in Europe, or further afield, as you wish – you will decide your own character’s origins. So the use of bits of non-English languages for character colour is perfectly OK, as long as you make sure that all significant interactions take place in English.

Cost
The ticket price for participating in On Location - France 2022 is 200€. This will cover accommodation for the three nights, and all food and drink during the larp. It will not cover transport to the larp (however a bus will be organised for those interested, to be paid for separately).
We continue the On Location pricing which includes the option of paying for higher priced "sponsor" ticket for 250€ – this helps to subsidize a place for a larper who otherwise wouldn’t have been able to afford the ticket. These subsidized tickets cost correspondingly less (150€), but their numbers are limited according to the amount of subsidized tickets that are bought.
Brand new players who need an extra financial nudge may get an extra special price of 100€. If you think this means you, write us a comment about it in your application form.
Update and word of thanks: there have been a heartwarmingly high number of players who have signed up for sponsor tickets!

Voltaire's attic
Voltaire's Attic (VA) is a French association that is the legal and administrative host of this run. Most of the organisers of this run are also founding members of VA, or VA volunteers. VA was created in 2016 by a ragtag crew of young artists to share and promote all kinds of art in their hometown. Larp is the newest addition to the wide range of events they create!
