Our Flag Means FUN- A Pirate RPG Adventure

with Gordo McLachlan

April 12th to June 7th, 2025

$325 More Info

Ages 10+

Form a pirate crew with your fellow classmates and set sail for fortune and glory! In this performance skills/RPG-Play course, you’ll craft your character’s unique backstory, abilities, and look. Then, you’ll bring them to life through improv and storytelling challenges before actual-play sessions of a tabletop role-playing-game. (If you’re interested in ‘Dungeons and Dragons’ , it’s like that but isn’t that exactly…)(Less ‘dragons’ more ‘mermaids’)

Will you discover the Lost Treasure of the Sunken Isles, or be swallowed whole by the deadly Kraken? The only way to find out is by playing the game! 

Ye Olde Fine Print: This is a fantasy pirate adventure with all of the trappings you might imagine. Forts will be raided, treasure will be plundered and buckles will be swashed. (Or is it ‘swashes’ will be ‘buckled’?) Which is to say: violence and thievery are inherent to the genre. Storylines may also involve: spoooooooky skeletons, the existence of grog/rum, dark magic, a pantheon of gods + beliefs. We would rate the content as PG-13, in line with that of the Pirates of the Caribbean films.
