THE LARAMIE PROJECT runs Nov. 29-Dec. 1

THE LARAMIE PROJECT
Presented by UC College-Conservatory of Music Drama
Nov. 29-Dec. 1
University Heights

Directed by Richard E. Hess

The facts surrounding the death of Matthew Shepard, a gay college student whose brutal murder shocked the country in 1998, come to life on stage. Award-winning playwright Moisés Kaufman and members of his theater company traveled to Laramie, Wyoming, to conduct 200 interviews with the residents of the town. What resulted is a powerful dramatization of the murder, investigation and subsequent convictions—a sobering look into how hate is born and nurtured in the back streets of a friendly American town. Mature subject matter.

Admission is free, but reservations are required. Tickets become available at noon on Monday, Nov. 26. Visit the CCM Box Office or call 513.556.4183 to reserve. Limit two tickets per order.

  • Thu-Fri, Nov. 29-30 at 7:30pm
