The Laramie Project
by Moisés Kaufman and members of Tectonic Theater Project
25 years ago, Matthew Shepard was severely beaten and left to die in an empty field. The men who targeted him did so because he was gay. In the proceeding months, nationwide attention was cast on hate, culminating in a movement that would lead to landmark anti-hate crime legislation in America. In November of that year, the members of the Tectonic Theatre Project travelled to Laramie, Wyoming to interview the people of the town where the murder occurred. This play is a collection of those interviews, as well as other found texts, that examines the thoughts and beliefs of the community before, during, and after the crime against Matthew.
