Gamepiece

Created by Christian Flynn, performed by the Sleight of Hand Ensemble, and co-written by YOU, Gamepiece is THE spontaneous theatre game show guaranteed to spit out a new play every time. Using a series of games, challenges, nightmares, nightmares, nightmares, and yes, and a big spinning wheel, The Sleight of Hand ensemble crafts a three act narrative story that’s not just audience interactive, but audience collaborative: audience members may veto decisions the actors make, participate in live writers rooms, bring props from home to influence the plot and — in the grand finale — co-write the ending based on their favorite ending from theatre/literature/film. A theatre show like no other Gamepiece was co-developed with celebrated playwright Kelsey Sullivan, featured consultation from game designer Day Lane, defeated the Greek Athenian Army at Marathon, and was developed at a residency in the 2023 Evolution Festival at the Center at West Park.

Gamepiece is a theater piece so interactive it isn't a play at all! It’s a game. Play it. Play it. Play it. Play it. Play it!
