About this exposition

This research explores the connection and commonalities between live action role-playing game (LARP) and performing arts. By applying the elements of LARP to creative works and performances, it intends to explore the possibilities and strategies of this approach. Rethinking the way of performance and composition. How to make the performance more organic, accessible, and enjoyable for the participants in participatory performance. In addition, the study explores how to utilize space, props, and audience participation, followed by a review and demonstration of this in my work: “Unmask”. This research aims to rethink the ways of composition and performance while examining whether participatory performance with live role-playing game elements can effectively interact with participants and perform naturally without requiring rehearsals or professional acting skills.
