The True Love Initiative
Welcome to the True Love Initiative
In a society where happiness, opportunities and the dream for love and partnership is intrinsically linked to the social elite, a group of young people was chosen to participate in the True Love Initiative; a program that promises a 100% success rate in finding your perfect match. 12 years later, the group is asked to come back as a data leak shows that there has been a mix-up in their specific group of participants, and there is a small chance that the program didn't give them their right match. Desperate to show to the world and themselves that their match was right to begin with, the couples throw themselves into a weekend of experiments that tests the limits of their love to the point of possible breakage and beyond.
The True Love Initiative is a larp about a group of people who had their True Love chosen for them, but now years later are forced to reevaluate that relationship. It is a larp about people who have spent 12 years desperately believing that they were together with the love of their life and what happens when that belief is challenged, even momentarily.
It's a larp about desperation, connection, dysfunctional relationships, and the frantic search for meaning through love.
During the larp, the characters will be participating in a reunion of the program they did 12 years ago. They will find themselves back in a luxury vacation home, told to relax and have fun with each other, just as if they were young once again. But slowly compatibility exercises and tests begins; tests that once were exciting and thrilling now have a whole new meaning, when your spouse is on the other side of the room with you. It's an intensive larp that focuses mainly on our characters’ core dysfunctional partnership, as that relationship is pushed and tested, and our characters are forced to face the possibility that what they have poured everything into for years have perhaps been wrong all along.
"This larp blew me away. It was intense, thought-provoking, fun, and touching. Anyone who enjoys playing couple dynamics, flawed characters, crying, and party games will have a great time."
"Incredible writing with a perfectly structured network of interpersonal relationships. Never a dull moment, and one of the most emotionally impactful larps I've ever been to."
"This larp is both an ode to the beauty of love and a warning of what happens when love is forced and limited by society. It showcases perfectly how love can be both a balm and a weapon."
