On October 7, 1998, in Laramie, Wyoming, 21-year-old gay college student Matthew Shepard was abducted by Aaron McKinney and Russell Henderson, savagely beaten, tied to a fence, and abandoned.

He died of his wounds five days later.

The whole country watched as candlelight vigils were held in his honor, his parents mourned,

and a town went into deep shock because a heinous act was committed by two of their native sons.

Moises Kaufman and the Tectonic Theater Project made six trips to Laramie over the course of a year and a half and conducted more than 200 interviews with the people of the town.

The Laramie Project chronicles the life of the town of Laramie in the year after the murder.

This breathtaking theatrical collage explores the depths to which humanity can sink and the heights of compassion of which we are capable.

Come join us for an evening that will, sadden, anger,
deeply move and hopefully, inspire you.
