Chandeliers and Caviar

There's a war going on out there somewhere,

But the war can't touch us here

Chandeliers and Caviar is a hack of John Harper's Lasers and Feelings, inspired primarily by Dave Malloy's critically acclaimed musical Natasha, Pierre, & the Great Comet of 1812, which is in turn an adaptation of Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace. 

In this game, you and your fellow players will find yourselves immersed in the decadent melodrama of the 19th-century aristocracy, as they grapple with love, status, and the shifting tides of fortune.

On the six pages of the enclosed book, you'll find rules for creating your cast of characters, with their entangled web of relationships, as well as a number of helpful plot starters to help you prepare a new and unique story with each different play session.

All you need to play is a set of six-sided dice, a number of trusted comrades eager for a riveting tale, and a flair for the dramatic.

Here's to happiness, freedom, and life!
