I wrote a TTRPG that inspired a ballet in NYC!
The World We Left Behind is a two-player worldbuilding game about exploring a deserted planet and learning what happened to the aliens who called it home.
Your characters will take multiple trips to the planet as they attempt to answer the question “what happened here?”
TWWLB was commissioned by BalletCollective to be used as Source Art in their upcoming 2023 season, THE MOMENT IS IMMINENT. BalletCollective has created a ballet inspired by TWWLB, which is being performed in NYC this fall by dancers from New York City Ballet.
Performance dates are:
Tuesday, October 31 at 7:30 PM
Wednesday, November 1 at 7:00 PM – Gala Performance
Thursday, November 2 at 7:30 PM
Tickets are available here.
A free livestream of the The November 2nd 7:30 PM performance will be available to watch at balletcollective.com/live (this webpage will become available closer to the performance).
TWWLB was designed in collaboration with Troy Schumacher (choreographer) and Phong Tran (composer), who created the music and the choreography for the ballet.
