In October 1998, a twenty-one-year-old student
at the University of Wyoming was kidnapped, severely beaten
and left to die, tied to a fence in the middle of the prairie
outside Laramie, Wyoming. His bloody, bruised and battered body
was not discovered until the next day, and he died several days
later in an area hospital. His name was Matthew Shepard, and
he was the victim of this assault because he was gay.
Moisés Kaufman and fellow members of the Tectonic Theater
Project made six trips to Laramie over the course of a year
and a half in the aftermath of the beating and during the trial
of the two young men accused of killing Shepard. They conducted
more than 200 interviews with the people of the town. Some people
interviewed were directly connected to the case, and others
were citizens of Laramie, and the breadth of their reactions
to the crime is fascinating. Kaufman and Tectonic Theater members
have constructed a deeply moving theatrical experience from
these interviews and their own experiences.
The Laramie Project is a breathtaking theatrical collage that
explores the depths to which humanity can sink and the heights
of compassion of which we are capable.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE LARAMIE PROJECT DOES CONTAIN SOME MATURE
CONTENT AND LANGUAGE.

Once Upon a Mattress is the hilarious
musical re-telling of the classic tale, "The Princess and
the Pea'. However, if you thought you knew the story of "The
Princess and The Pea," you may be in for a walloping surprise!
You may not know, for instance, that Princess Winnifred actually
swam the moat to reach the Prince, Dauntless the Drab? Or that
Lady Larken's love for Sir Harry provided a rather compelling
reason that she must reach the bridal altar post haste? Or that,
in fact, it wasn't the pea at all that caused the princess a
sleepless night? Carried on a wave of wonderful songs, by turns
hilarious and raucous, romantic and melodic, this rollicking
spin on the familiar classic of royal courtship and comeuppance
provides for some side-splitting shenanigans. Chances are you'll
never look at fairy tales quite the same way again.
