WE CREATE
CULTURE
LIVEFORM IS AN ART COLLECTIVE.
WE CREATE EXPERIENCES WITH LARP
OUR MEDIUM
LIVE ACTION ROLE PLAYING
Larp is theatre without audience or script, carefully planned to guide the participants through improvised acting
It's like a lost gem from childhood, brought back to life for a mature audience
You will have a character with a name, goals and relations. Enough to know how to behave, but not too much, so you won't have to memorise. You will experience this characters live by doing whatever they would do. We take care of the world that surrounds you, so the illusion is perfect.
Larps can last for an hour, an evening or many days. Most last a weekend. Some are made for fun, so you can feel how it is to attend a magic school or be a medieval knight, some are serious and will teach you about emotions or the lives of others.
And you'll have the greatest photos on your social media!

new age
Yesterday never dies
Cinematic Larp School Galore 2017
Imagine a party like at Gatsby's, with such esteemed guest as James Bond, Sherlock Holmes, Marilyn Monroe and Coco Chanel. Feasts, dances and fireworks in a fictional, but perfectly feasible world, hold together by everything Hollywood ever thought us. This is the kind of experience only larp can give. „New Age: Yesterday Never Dies” was such a larp, and it was spectacular!

college of wizardry
Larp with international media coverage 2014
In November 2014 larp history was written. College of Wizardry has sparked a whole new branch of tourism. People from all over the world came to Czocha Castle to spend 4 days in the magical world of Harry Potter.
College of Wizardry still exists, although 2018 we passed it over to the next generation of creators and to create space for something new!
The first zombie Run in Poland
Sport Event 2013
On Halloween 2013 Zombies appeared in the capital of Silesia and we organized the Evacuation for over 700 participants! Zombie Runs and other thematic sport events are a popular attraction around the world and our event was the first of its kind in Katowice, Poland.
All beginings are humble
Start of the foundation 2012
In 2012 two groups of larpers joined forces to create the 3rd installation of the „New Age” series. „FFF” from Cieszyn and „Wehikuł” from Katowice. Like many young people we learned how far cooperation and friendship can get you and what initially was meant to be an one-shot became one of Polands most prolific art collectives.
First, in Poland larps were known to almost no-one, while in Scandinavia, Germany and the U.S. it became an esteemed art form and multi-million business. Now, since „College of Wizardry” Poland has a reputation as mekka of Larps and some of the most ambitious projects are made with or by us. Liveform.
It's an honor to share our passion with you.
