A contemporary drama with time pressure. The Family Andersson is a short game for 8-10 participants. The game is about a group of siblings who have gathered in the home of their recently deceased parents to discuss the inheritance. The focus is on exploring relationships between family members and testing how a game functions when more than one players act the same part.
