Bardic Inspiration is an experimental audio drama and real-play RPG performance presented by Shakespeare on the Lawn at the University of Virginia. Blending elements of character sheets, table work, dice-rolling, and improv, this team of actors takes on the roles of the four lovers from William Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream in order to tell their own version of his classic play. Join Demetrius, Helena, Lysander, Hermia and their Game Manager on a journey through the forest of Athens. The course of true love never did roll smooth!
