Director's Note

When I first learned that Roundtown Players would be producing The Laramie Project, I realized that this would be an amazing opportunity to spread awareness and understanding of exactly what happened in the town of Laramie, and how it still affects the world as we see it today. I encourage the audience to really listen to what these people had to say. These are powerful words spoken by very real people who lived through this event, and we would do well to truly understand them. 

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who have helped me through the directorial process, including my parents, friends, the RTP board, and especially my assistant director Justin, who has been vital as both a crew member and as my mentor throughout the show. Lastly I would like to thank the audience for coming to such a meaningful show, I hope you enjoy it!
