There is a house behind Boogie Street. A horrible, dilapidated old hospital that has long since lost its purpose and now serves as one of the worst tenements in Revachol. Home to sweatshop workers willing to take on any risks, the poor, the downtrodden, criminals, eccentrics, and penniless artists.
97 Poets of Revachol is a high-production immersive larp set in an old, decaying building in the world of Disco Elysium. It provides a slice-of-life view of a community struggling with poverty, living in a progressively more polarised society.
A backyard revolution or struggle to keep the status quo. Fighting for freedom, ideals, and that nice armchair you want to steal for your living room. Transcendent music to be composed in your uncle’s cellar and effervescent paintings sprayed on tenement walls, covered with drunken graffiti scrawls. Broken windows composed into disco balls, shining over a dance floor filled with your neighbours and enemies. And secrets of the world manifesting themselves in old corridors.
Poverty, politics, art, drugs, and melancholy. That is La Cage.
We aim to create an immersive and thoughtful experience where the participants experience a slice of life in Revachol, in a world slightly different from ours but similar in many ways. You will experience the political turmoil of revolution in a shabby old tenement block and the lives of the poor, the artists and the students who inhabit it.
The game offers social realism and a gritty experience of people who have to toil in sweatshops to make ends meet. It focuses on the beauty – the art, the glitter of parties, the allure of designer drugs – that emerges through the cracks. It offers a supernatural, surreal aspect – rooms that speak to you and strange people who sometimes change into the voices in your head – the Unseen. All this is La Cage – a living, breathing community we hope you will help us create.
