Description

2025 marks the 25th anniversary of THE LARAMIE PROJECT’s premiere. What has changed, what hasn’t, and how has today's queer community metabolized Matthew Shepard’s murder and all that followed?

In October 1998, a twenty-one-year-old student at the University of Wyoming was kidnapped, severely beaten, and left tied to a fence in the middle of the prairie outside Laramie, Wyoming. THE LARAMIE PROJECT is a collage that explores the depths to which humanity can sink and the heights of compassion of which we are capable.

THE LARAMIE PROJECT is presented at Theatre Rhinoceros as an elevated staged reading, with all trappings and design of a full production, and actors performing with scripts in hand.
