Downtime Activities

Downtime Activities is a live tabletop game performed with an audience in the steampunk glory of the Gasworks Museum, Dunedin, New Zealand.

What do actors do when there’s no theatre to play in? This. Totally improvised storytelling, live music, a real audience, no retakes, no safety net.

For the full experience, come see us live ($20 limited seats, 6pm, last Sunday of the month). If you can’t make it, this podcast is the next best seat at the table.

Buckle in. Bring snacks. New sessions monthly.

Session 2 - Part 2 of Downtime Activities ongoing campaign, recorded Sunday 31st May with a live audience. 
Players: Mark Neilson, Matthew Wilson, Rosella Hart and Nick Tipa with original music and live soundscape Maddy Parkins-Craig and Dungeon Master Ashley Stewart.
Sound is a bit dodgy in this episode, teething problems with recording in a live space with an audience, fear not we will fix it but I wanted to ge this up when I said I would. A better version will be along in a bit, and future episodes will fix this :)
