Youngblood Theatre Goes to Laramie


It's only a few months old, but Youngblood Theatre has signed on to participate in one of the most ambitious theater events in recent years. The Laramie Project: Ten Years Later is the Tectonic Theater Project's "sequel" to their pioneering docudrama about the Matthew Shepherd killing in Laramie, Wyoming. On Oct. 12, over 100 theaters around the world will link up with the Tectonic folks in a live pre-show webcast about the project. A reading of the new play follows. The interepid Jonathan West has signed on to direct, and Youngblood will collaborate with UW-Milwaukee's Peck School of the Arts and other community organizations. More info HERE.
