The Valley Players hosts "Chaos in the Valley” on Friday, November 1, at 7 p.m. at the Valley Players Theater, on Main Street, Waitsfield. It’s the Spooky Season and that means extra trouble for adventurers! While relaxing at Charlie’s bar the gang learned of an ancient horror and a cult trying to awaken it once again! They must venture into the depths under the city. Will they be able to stop it in time? This Dungeons and Dragons-themed show will feature four improv comedians/table top role players and a Dungeon Master.
Dungeons and Dragons is essentially a collective storytelling experience. The players create characters they control and the Dungeon Master creates the world in which the characters interact with each other, other peoples, monsters, landscapes, and, of course, dungeons. Players are free to interact with the world as they wish. However, no matter what they want to do nor how good they are at something, there is always a chance of failure. The 20-sided die, or D20, determines the success or failure of the characters' actions.
When the game of Dungeons and Dragons is played in front of an audience it adds an extra amount of spontaneity. Admission for the audience is a small donation to the Valley Players Theater and audience members can purchase raffle tickets to win prizes and participate in the show by altering game events at set times, such as making a player re-roll; adding or subtracting monsters in a fight; and adding bonuses to a player’s roll. Audience members are encouraged to bring cash for these transactions.
No reservations are required, seats will be available on a first-come, first-served basis starting at 6:30. The audience may bring snacks and beverages to enjoy during the game. This show is "rated" PG13 for some language and figurative violence and will last approximately two hours. Questions may be emailed to
