Description:

When describing tabletop games to newcomers, one of the easiest comparisons is “it’s a bit like improv with dice” – but what does it mean to design “theatrical” games? What lessons can game designers learn from theatre, and vice versa? And just what the heck is dramaturgy, anyways?

In this panel, join us for a lively conversation between current and former theatre practitioners who have turned their hand to game design as they discuss the page, the stage, and everything in between.
