The Indian River Drama Club Presents

The Laramie Project: 10 Years Later...An Epilogue

The epilogue focuses on the long-term effects of the murder of Matthew Shepard on the town of Laramie. It explores how the town has changed and how the murder continues to reverberate in the community.

The play also includes new interviews with Matthew’s mother Judy Shepard and Mathew’s murderer Aaron McKinney, who’s serving two consecutive life sentences. The writers also conducted many follow-up interviews Laramie residents from the original piece, including, Romaine Patterson, Reggie Fluty, Jedediah Shultz, Father Roger Schmidt, Jonas Slonaker, Beth Loffreda and others.

This is a great chance to see this sequel to the famous social drama that changed the way theater is made.

Indian River has one of the most progressive high school drama departments in the North Country.  They have a social conscience and take chances.
