The Play is the Thing
Write down your Rolls, Role, and Goal. Be open or lie and plot, that's Shakespearean!

Stage Manager Guidance

Your job is to make sure the antics and plots flow freely. You're encouraged to use several in-game days. Give guests time to arrive, go through social graces, and attend all the ancillary parties before the ceremony. When in doubt, send in a comic foil to tell uncomfortable truths.
