Project summary

Inventing Turandot is an operatic RPG (role-playing game). Players are not only the two singers/actors, but also everything that surrounds them on and off stage. Objects will turn on characters showing how imagination can give a second life to everything. Not only singers/actors are able to perform a role but also a chair, a shoe and even a pot. Objects cannot just tell the story but also become an instrument to accompany it with music supporting the switch from spoken into sung word.
