Photo Coverage: First look at King Avenue Players' THE LARAMIE PROJECT

This staged reading is in commemoration of the 20th anniversary of the death of Matthew Shepard, the young man who, in October 1998, was savagely beaten and left to die in Laramie, Wyoming.

THE LARAMIE PROJECT is a breathtaking collage that explores the depths to which humanity can sink and the heights of compassion of which we are capable.

Directed by Edward Grudus, the cast includes: Rachel Belenker, David A Boley, Charlene Dubin, Karla Fischbach, Sarah Merkey, Dan McCarty, Duncan McKennie, John Phythyon, Cory Velazco, and Patrick Worley.

One performance only - Friday, October 12, 2018 at 7:30pm.

Performance is at King Avenue United Methodist Church, 299 King Ave., Columbus, OH. PLEASE NOTE: This show is not suitable for young audiences as it contains strong adult language, adult situations, and adult subject matter including descriptions of violence in a brutal hate crime.

Admission is free, but donations are gratefully accepted. All profits will be donated to Kaleidoscope Youth Center and Equitas Health.
