# Event Details - **Event Name**: A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to ToonTown LARP - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 21 Feb, 2026 at 07:00 pm – Sat, 21 Feb, 2026 at 11:00 pm - **Event Description**: A sincere larp about silly peopleAbout this EventThe year is 1938 and times are hard in the US, even here at Caper Cartoons. Maybe especially here at Caper. You’re just starting to get off the ground; opening numbers for movies, theaters buying the rights to the animations you put out. People are starting to know your name. But the Great Depression has hit hard, funds are tight, and there’s rumors circulating that the boss might have to cut staff… again. You haven’t been paid in weeks. But then again, you didn’t become an animator because of the paycheck. You love it, right? It's worth it…. Right?So you’ve got a deadline. Big theater, The Charleston, wants one of your animations tomorrow. The team has been slaving away; ink and paint girls up to their elbows in ink, artists drawing til their hands go numb, and writers pulling out their hair trying to make the jokes come together. You thought you had something coming together, but you knew, deep down, that it was a dud when you handed it over to the man himself. The boss took one look at that piece of sad animation and scrapped it on the spot.Tonight’s the night. One of the Caper Brothers, Art Caper, has locked the lot of you in the studio with a padlock and chains and you’re not leaving until you’ve got something completely new finished. The clock is ticking and nothing is harder than comedy on a deadline.That’s if you all don’t K*ll each other first. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/21710570-f65a-11f0-a7b3-9f39d05c56dc-rimg-w1200-h120-dc000000-gmir.png This is a sincere larp about silly people. It will largely be light-hearted and funny, with moments of genuine poignancy. Come prepared to laugh and have feelings.Your characters are making a cartoon, but that does not mean you have to be an artist! You're welcome to draw, or not!, as you prefer. Game time will be divided between a gamified making of cartoon, office politics, and goofing off.Costuming is strongly encouraged. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/21941dd0-f65a-11f0-a7b3-9f39d05c56dc-rimg-w1200-h120-dc000000-gmir.png About the WriterA Funny Thing Happened on the Way to ToonTown will be GMed by the creator, Vivien Grimm of Grimmoire Productions. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/chicago/a-funny-thing-happened-on-the-way-to-toontown-larp/100001980522339632 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art, fine-arts, comedy, entertainment, theatre - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 24.63, max: 24.63, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Chicago - **state**: IL - **country**: United States - **location**: Goblin Market Manga & Curiosities, North Lincoln Avenue, Chicago, IL, USA - **lat**: 41.93385320000001 - **long**: -87.66082899999999 - **full address**: Goblin Market Manga & Curiosities, North Lincoln Avenue, Chicago, IL, USA, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to ToonTown LARP - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/d0725322f04e162e0cd0da66b32fe1dfc425505df349de44ae15eb60235d58c1-rimg-w1200-h675-dcf5c635-gmir.jpg?v=1768952744 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to ToonTown LARP being held? - **A:** A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to ToonTown LARP takes place on Sat, 21 Feb, 2026 at 07:00 pm to Sat, 21 Feb, 2026 at 11:00 pm at Goblin Market Manga & Curiosities, North Lincoln Avenue, Chicago, IL, USA, United States. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to ToonTown LARP? - **A:** Tickets for A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to ToonTown LARP are priced at USD 25 per person.
