Matthew Shepard's death became a national symbol of intolerance, but for the people of the town, the event was deeply personal. In the aftermath, Moises Kaufman and members of the Tectonic Theater Project went to Laramie and conducted more than 200 interviews with its citizens. From the transcripts, the playwrights constructed an extraordinary chronicle of life in the town after the murder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eThe Laramie Project: Ten Years Later\u003c\/em\u003e, the troupe revisits the town a decade after the tragedy, finding a community grappling with its legacy and its place in history.
