The Future is Straight

A Nordic larp about gay conversion therapy set in a retro sci-fi setting

The Future is Straight is a Nordic larp, where we are exploring two days in a gay conversion camp for youth and young adults. We will follow the “rehabbers” as they go through therapy, educational lessons, and maybe tiptoe into a queer community for the first time – struggling to navigate between fully realising themselves, and being accepted as individuals in an oppressive society. The larp is set in a dystopian retro setting in a extreme heteronormative society where queerness is oppressed based on a worldview based in perceptions of science and “nature itself”.

The Future is Straight is running again in the autumn 2024!

We are working on booking a venue, and dates from two new runs in 2024 (summer/early autumn) will soon be released! The larp will take place near Oslo and there will be options for different ticket prices.
