A larp about the Fight for the Vote in 1912. Oritinally set up as a double-run in Stockholm in 2014 (At the Hallwyl Palace and Jacobsbergs Gård), and then once again in 2018 (In the Grünewald villa).

Larp description

You have journeyed to Stockholm to plan a demonstration and a convention for Women's Right to Vote, but there is as much that divides you as unites you.

You all have strong beliefs about what it means to be a woman, and what woman's place in the world should be.

Equal pay? Sex workers rights? Illegitimate children? Contraceptives? Alcohol ban? International peace? Socialism? Which of these are feminist issues, and which are distractions?

And... should the movement turn militant, like those notorious, exciting, scandalous “suffragettes” who throw bombs in London?

The time to change the world is now, and the person to do it is you.
