I know you don't LARP, but see if you can hunt down references to a game
called "Spin Cycle". It's an 8-hour LARP written by some students in Boston
that explores similar themes. (This is a self-contained LARP, not a
campaign setting - as much a happening as a game - so I'm not certain how
adaptable it is, but it was fun to hear about.)
