The Laramie Project

The Laramie Project is a play by Moises Kaufman and members of the Tectonic Theater Project about the reaction to the murder of Matthew Shepard in 1998. The play draws on hundreds of interviews conducted by the theatre company with inhabitants of the town, company members' own journal entries, and published news reports.
