In 1998, Matthew Shepard was kidnapped, beaten, and left tied to a fence outside Laramie, Wyoming. After Shepard's death, Moisés Kaufman and the members of Tectonic Theater Project conducted more than 200 interviews with the people of Laramie, creating this deeply moving play directly from their words. Because this performance details the aftermath of a hate crime, it contains strong language and adult themes and is not recommended for young children. Presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Dramatists Play Service.
