Burnt Offerings: The Play

So,

I am at my FLGS and I spy a postcard with the following on it:



Is there going to be a Paizo red carpet event for this <G>. Sometimes I love my city.

Seriously? This is stunning. Can you provide more proof of this? A website or some footage of this?

What a fantastic idea!

Not sure whether it can focus on some of the more mature content of the adventure, but the attack on Sandpoint could make a great stage piece.

The image I posted was scanned from the card that I found at my local game store. I then combined the front and back into a single image with photoshop.

As for footage, the play doesn't start until November.

This is amazing. I seriously hope that they tape this thing and make it available for viewing.

wow

That is really cool. And I bet it's the very first time a D&D module has been adapted for the stage!

Yeah, it's pretty wild! Several of us here at Paizo are trying to figure out if we can spare a day to make an expedition south to check the play out, in fact...

Actually my wife and I saw SKR (with bunch of others) do Castle Ravenloft at GenCon in 2000. SKR is a wicked Strahd von Zarovich. It was unfortunate I couldn't stay for the whole performance.

We should agree on a show and have a post-party.

That is so awesome! How did they arrange that with Paizo? Community use policy?

Wow, this is for real! If this works out, this could be going national! Imagine countless schools across the country doing this play!

I picked up the card from Guardian Games yesterday.

Maybe I should get my friend to advise them; he does an awesome Paizo goblin voice. In fact, he loved them so much that his current 4E character is a goblin from this same adventure path.

I wonder if the script is going to be made available to the public once the play is over or would that be against the agreement with Paizo?

Or, if its good enough, would Paizo release it as a free PDF for its customers.

Great idea...I set up a poll in a separate thread, to help us choose a day. Check it out here.

Glad for the attention!

I'm so glad to see "Burnt Offerings" getting so much attention! I read through Tom Beckett's script a couple days ago and am totally jazzed -- it's going to be sooooo fun! If any of you can make it, I have no doubt it will be worth your time. Tom has a whole squad of super-creative gaming buddies that will be participating in the production, both back and on-stage (the cast will be a mix of adults and middle-schoolers). For my part, I'll be lending my lute to the production, but I suspect the play will benefit most strongly from all the stage-combat expertise Tom will be pulling together.

I'm so excited about this play!

So is there any way for the rest of us to see the script?
