Red Planet: Revolution!

This listing is for a Groundswell event with box-office service provided by SproutSpoken.

Groundswell presents: Red Planet: Revolution! as part of the BeNewquay Festival.

It’s the year 2224, and the human settlement on Mars has finally declared its independence from Earth. You have been chosen to lead the people of Mars into a new and brighter future. The decisions you make now will shape your planet’s history for generations to come. No pressure…

Created by critically acclaimed innovators Upstart Theatre, Red Planet: Revolution is a live-action storytelling game, played in small teams, that places the power to shape society in your hands. Who will win glory? Who will be at the bottom of the pile? You thought Westminster was bad - try outer space!
