Last night, I did some research for the GURPS Discworld scenario I want to run at OGC. I watched an Opera Australia production of Gilbert and Sullivan's HMS Pinafore. It makes sense, honest.

This adventure's going to be about Ankh-Morpork's first amateur theatre group. The city already has a traditional theatre, the Dysk, and an opera house. Clearly, the next step is to mash the two together into proto-musical theatre. And this being the Discworld, it's all happening for the first time, and following structures no one recognizes, but feels to be somehow right.

So Pinafore gave me some ideas for plot elements to include in the overarching story, as well as what I don't want to include in the play-within-the-game I'm toying with including. Next up, Pirates of Penzance.

Dude, that would have been so helpful if we got NGC. I'll have to see if there are clips or something floating around the net.
