Welcome to the UK L(A)RP Wiki!

A new site for sharing and collating resources on LRP/LARP/larp events and production, design, theory, concepts and techniques used across the UK. The official launch of the site will happen in late Summer/early Autumn 2019 - until this time all materials are still under construction. The wiki is partnered with the website, which is also under construction at uklrp.org and uklarp.org

What is LRP, LARP or larping?

Live (action) roleplaying is an activity where you take on a character and act out an improvised narrative in the context of a particular setting or genre. It is both a leisure pursuit in its own right and a collection of techniques which can be used for education and developmental purposes. Connected in various ways to related activities such as tabletop roleplaying games, historical re-enactment, cosplay and immersive theatre, different communities have developed their own styles or features of live roleplaying. Read more and find links to some great articles on the UK larping page.
