In 1998, a 21 year old gay student was kidnapped, severely beaten and left to die, tied to a fence on the outskirts of Laramie, Wyoming. His story has been immortalised in a best-selling piece of theatre that is being brought to the people of Melbourne by Mockingbird Theatre.

Some of Melbourne’s best actors portray over 90 characters, in what is a breathtaking collage that explores the depths to which humanity can sink and the compassionate heights to which we can climb.

Back by popular demand this powerful stage event that will touch and change those who witness this theatrical masterpiece.

WHEN: Friday 26 October – Sunday 11 November, 8pm Tues-Sat, 6pm Sun
WHERE: Chapel off Chapel, 12 Little Chapel Street, Prahran
