In October 1998 Matthew Shepard was kidnapped, severely beaten and left to die, tied to a fence on the outskirts of Laramie, Wyoming. Five weeks later, Moisés Kaufman and fellow members of the Tectonic Theater Project went to Laramie, and over the course of the next year, conducted more than 200 interviews with people of the town. From these interviews they wrote the play The Laramie Project, a chronicle of the life of the town of Laramie in the year after the murder. The Laramie Project is one of the most performed plays in America today
Curio Theatre's Advanced Teen Master Class will be performing The Laramie Project. Most of these students have been with us since we began summer camp 8 years ago! All West Philly kids! We have watched them grow and develop into beautiful young people and strong actors. They have worked extremely hard in a very short period of time and are ready to bring you a stunning performance. Please come out and support them. Tues and Wed. May 15 and 16 at 7pm and Sat. May 19 at 3pm. For mature audiences due to some language and subject matter. Limited seating. First come, first serve.
