Deja Vu, Act Twelve

As the curtain falls on this, the company’s final act, they’ll have to decide what a new reality holds before heading off to their post-show drinks at the pub.

Programme notes

Thank you for tuning in to this final Act of the Blackshaw Saga.

After next week’s Backstage episode, Merely Roleplayers is taking a few weeks off to prepare for our next chapter - but stay tuned for some surprise bonus episodes!

We’ll be back the week of Hallowe’en with the beginning of our first Main House production: Vigil. Small towns are being left behind after cuts to the Department of Omissions, the agency meant to protect the public from things that go bump in the night. In Sherrydown, one neglected market town, a band of misfits have stepped in to protect their neighbours now that the government can’t or won’t. They’re absolutely not sanctioned, not all of them are strictly speaking competent, but they’re the only ones who can help - and that makes it their responsibility.

Also coming up in our Studio: Dr Magnethands (a very, very silly superhero story) and Codename Mosaic: Ghost Recall (revisiting the agents from Codename: Mosaic as they deal with their deadliest foes yet: accountability and oversight).
