Watertown Children’s Theatre at the Mosesian Center for the Arts will feature Waltham residents Nina Kremer and Gates Morton in “The Laramie Project,” by Moisés Kaufman and the Tectonic Theater Project.
In October 1998, Laramie, Wyoming, was the site of a crime against a young man named Matthew Shepard. Kaufman and fellow members of the Tectonic Theater Project made six trips to Laramie over the course of a year and a half, in the aftermath of the attack and during the trial of the two young men accused of killing Shepard.

In March 2020, Broadway and local productions alike were forced to shut down in response to COVID-19 to protect audience members, crew members and performers. While theater has yet to return to District 214 in its original form, D214 s theater departments have taken advantage of unconventional platforms to encourage artistic expression. I m really proud of District 214 and how we are working together to find ways to let our students continue on this path, D214 Fine Arts Coordinator and Prospect High School Theater Director Jeremy Morton said.
We re not being paused we re moving forward and growing through this experience rather than because of it.
