Play Overview: In October 1998 a twenty-one-year-old student at the University of Wyoming was kidnapped, severely beaten and left to die, tied to a fence in the middle of the prairie outside Laramie, Wyoming. His bloody, bruised and battered body was not discovered until the next day, and he died several days later in an area hospital. His name was Matthew Shepard, and he was the victim of this assault because he was gay.
THE LARAMIE PROJECT is a breathtaking theatrical collage that explores the depths to which humanity can sink and the heights of compassion of which we are capable.
"One of the ten best plays of the year. A pioneering work of theatrical reportage and a powerful stage event." Time Magazine. "Astonishing. Not since Angels in America has a play attempted so much: nothing less than an examination of the American psyche at the end of the millennium." Associated Press. "There emerges a mosaic as moving and important as any you will see on the walls of the churches of the world nothing short of stunning you will be held in rapt attention." New York Magazine.
