Welcome to Gaia! ::

I saw that. It was being performed at the community college near me a couple of years back. It actually brought me to tears. crying My favorite part definitely had to be when the crazy fundamentalists were picketing the funeral, and Matthew Shepard's friends dressed up like angels and blocked them from sight with their huge wings. heart

To Luna Eclipse: That was my fav part too. It was just so...I dunno, wonderful and touching and creative. It brought me to tears, though slightly happy tears.

And don't feel ignorant. Lots of people don't know what it's about. Here's a synopsis: In 1998 Matthew Shepard, a 21 year old homosexual in Laramie, Wyoming was kidnapped, violently beaten and left tied to a fence post outside town. In the end he died. Moses Kaufman and the Tectonic Theatre Company went to Laramie and over the course of a year and a half they did 80 interviews about the case. The Laramie Project, a play written in documentary format, is the final product of those interviews.

It's a beautiful play. I highly suggest it to anyone who can go see it.
