ABOUT THE SHOW
In 1998, Matthew Shepard, a gay college student in Laramie, Wyoming was kidnapped, beaten and left to die. The incident became a national media event and put the town of Laramie under a microscope. Over the course of the following year, The Tectonic Theater Project conducted hundreds of interviews with Laramie Residents and others involved. The show itself is a series of monologues and scenes taken directly from the transcripts of those interviews. The real words of over 70 people weave together to tell the story of what happened to Matthew and try to make sense of how such a brutal crime could happen in a town like Laramie.
