So how far would you be willing to go in order to stage a production of
The Laramie Project in the state of Wyoming? No Fog West Theater was started when a Sheridan high school student wanted to perform
The Laramie Project in high school, but the play was banned for its language and explicit content. That student went to Vassar the following year, drummed up a cast, director and financial support, and then they brought
The Laramie Project to Sheridan, Wyoming for a two-week run at the Carriage House Theater. They repeated the venture again in 2008, performing
Talking to Terrorists. You can read about the company's Wyoming run in the
Casper Star-Tribune, linked
here.
How's that for dedication? It's an interesting story, and you can read some of their reactions online from
their blog for No Fog West; they basically only write during their summer performance season, so there are posts from their 2007 and 2008 seasons.
It seems that they have let their website domain expire, but you can also track them via
Facebook. Definitely check them out!
