Tacoma Little Theatre to Host Benefit Reading of THE LARAMIE PROJECT, 6/26

The Tacoma theater community is coming together to support the victims of the Orlando massacre with a special one night only staged reading of The Laramie Project on Sunday, June 26th at 7:30pm. The event will be held at Tacoma Little Theatre. The brainchild of Rachel Fitzgerald, this benefit came from a simple question. "What can I do?"

"What can I do to make a difference in the lives that this tragedy has touched? Well, I thought if I had that question, other people must as well. So, I contacted the major Tacoma theaters to see who else was interested." -Rachel Fitzgerald

The response has been outstanding. Tacoma Little Theatre stepped up right away to give us a home for the reading. 31 actors - the best of Tacoma's talent - have volunteered their time, and people are coming out of the proverbial woodwork to help out.
