The Laramie Project by Big Dawg Productions
In October 1998, Matthew Shepard, a 21 year old gay man was kidnapped, severely beaten, and left tied to a fence in the middle of the prairie outside Laramie, Wyoming. He died several days later in an area hospital. In the aftermath of the beating and during the trial of the two young men accused of killing Shepard, the Tectonic Theater Project made six trips to Laramie over a year and a half, conducting more than 200 interviews with the people of the town. The Laramie Project is a breathtaking collage that explores the depths to which humanity can sink, and the heights of compassion of which we are capable. Moises Kaufmans award winning play challenges our notions of the role of Theater.
