Description

A chamber larp for 2 players by Oscar Biffi & Alessandro Giovannucci. Playable live or long-distance.

What to write about! My whole life is a letter to you. Writing about love is forbidden, so I’ll write about two brothers. That ought to be sufficiently remote. Bratishka and Starik, the younger and the elder, bound together and torn apart by a single, crazy train ride. In search of her, from St. Petersburg to Moscow, while reality runs past the window, bathed in reddish light.

No character sheets, but an exchange of letters. No unity of action or place, but the five legs of a journey. No definite ending, but the whims of fate lurking behind every corner. No love story… Or is there one? It’s hard to tell, with a Russia straight out of a novel casting its melancholy shadow over it all.

Letters not about love is a chamber larp written by Oscar Biffi & Alessandro Giovannucci from the Italian Chamber Orchestra. Playable live or long-distance, it's a little taste from the chamber larp anthology Crescendo Giocoso.
