The Laramie Project

The Laramie Project

This fall, the MLWGS Drama Program presents THE LARAMIE PROJECT, a virtual presentation available for streaming on November 19th @ 7 pm. Based on over 200 interviews with the residents of the town of Laramie, Wyoming, this gripping and poignant play examines the murder of gay college student Matthew Shepard and the town’s response to the crime. A serious examination of the events of the case, told in the often raw and emotional language of the townspeople, the play is not intended for young children. Instead, this unique and powerful dramatic experience offers a chance for the Maggie Walker community to examine the ideals that bind us together and the forces that seek to drive us apart.

Link coming soon for streaming on November 19th.
