Pop Up Playground Playtests
There is a serious lack of playgrounds in the 9 to 5 world. Why not fill up your weekend with some zombie tag?
Overview
People don't play as many games as they used to. Gone are the schoolyard days and tag and bullrush — can you even remember your last game of handball?
Pop Up Playground are a local collective of big kids seeking to solve this problem. Through "constructed social situations", "collective storytelling", and "competitive goal-driven play", the group's elaborate playtime sessions could be just the ticket to cure your grown-up malaise.
In the past, the group's curated events have included a game of avian roleplay involving giant puppets and stealth and a mysterious game of historical intrigue called Pudding Lane. Now, they're working on games with names like Grandma's Ninjas and Zombie Tag. Over the next few weekends they'll be developing these new ideas for the annual This Is A Door games festival that will be taking place in November.
If you feel like letting your inner child out for the day, shoot them an email to let them know you’re coming, and bring a gold coin donation to help pay for the space hire.
