Dimension 20, a popular D&D actual play series, made a monumental debut at Madison Square Garden on January 24. The cast prepared through individualized pregame rituals to ensure optimal performance for the live audience. Elements included physical workouts and mental preparation through music tailored to evoke the desired energy. Techniques ranged from engaging in group activities to build camaraderie, to personal listening choices of intense or thematically significant songs, emphasizing the blend of physical readiness and mental focus necessary for live performance in front of 20,000 fans.
The thing I drive most with when it comes to performance is that your body has to meet your mind, and so both of those things need to be warmed up.
I really like to work out before a show. If I can't get to a gym, I'll just go on a long walk, try and get my heart rate up.
I'll probably listen to 'Hypnotize' by Notorious B.I.G. a thousand times before Madison Square Garden. ... Things that are epic in scale.
I think it’s especially important for this kind of work - especially D&D - to hang out with my friends a little bit.
