COMMUNITY CONTENTHOPKINTON — Enter Stage Left Theater will present “The Laramie Project,” a 2000 play by Moisés Kaufman and members of the Tectonic Theater Project about the reaction to the 1998 murder of gay University of Wyoming student Matthew Shepard in Laramie, Wyoming. “‘The Laramie Project,’ while confronting the complexities of gay rights and its detractors as its main theme, is ultimately a human story, one of inclusion and alienation, fear and yearning, violence and love,” he said. “Our production will present as its focus, the people of Laramie, their unique stories and perspectives amidst these compelling circumstances.”A talk back will be held after the performances on Oct.15 and 16 with Cathy Renna. She will be on hand to share her experience and help guide the conversation that is sparked by this piece. Additionally, student "rush" tickets will be available for any middle or high school students who would like to attend.
