Show: On October 6, 1998, a young, gay college student was beaten, robbed, and left to die on the outskirts of Laramie, Wyoming. The story became a national headline.  On November 14, 1998, The members of Tectonic Theater Project traveled to Laramie to conduct interviews with the people of the town. During the next year, they would return to Laramie several times and conduct over two hundred interviews. What resulted is this play: a montage of interviews, news reports, journal entries, and court transcripts documenting the town’s reactions to this event and the small group of theatre makers’ experiences as they searched for answers.

ABOUT CASTING:
Looking for 8-10 actors (subject to change) of all ethnicities, genders, ages 16-70s.
This is an ensemble show. All actors will be playing multiple characters, narrators, and ensemble. You may be asked to play characters whose ethnicity, race, gender, etc. differ from your own. You are primarily playing the members of the Tectonic Theatre Project, who re-enact the interviews they conducted. Many characters only have a few lines, and a few scenes will be read off the page.
We are seeking actors who reflect our world to tell the stories we put onstage, and therefore strongly encourage people of diverse backgrounds and underrepresented groups to audition.
