Our Call of Cthulhu Live Tour of the UK is over! Over the past week-and-half we brought Call of Cthulhu actual play on stage to highly engaged and appreciative audiences in Birmingham, Brighton, London, Manchester, and Glasgow.

It was by all accounts a tremendous success — thank you to everyone who came to the show!

A huge vote of thanks to our amazing Keeper of Arcane Lore Mark Meer, and the incredibly talented investigators he led into madness over five nights: Samantha Beart, Jasper Cartwright, Johnny Chiodini, Belinda Cornish, and Josephine McAdam. And our special guest investigators, Paula Deming (Birmingham), Brian Holland (London), and Dom Allen (Manchester).

P.S. Also a shout-out to Chaosium's Laurence Finch. Laurence did a sterling job organising the tour's merchandise sales, and was planning to come along to sell it. But sadly came down with Covid on Day One and so had to withdraw from the tour. From his sickbed, Laurence went above and beyond to still make sure we had merch delivered to all the sites. We literally sold everything, right down to the demo boxes. At the London show, the stock completely sold out before the show even began it was so popular! Thank you Laurence!
