Company told the story of the brutal murder of gay University of Wyoming
student Matthew Shepard, Artistic Director Moises Kaufman and other company
members wondered what changes affected Laramie, Wyoming since the incident
brought hate crimes legislation to national attention. In a
continuing effort to explore this tragedy and its effects on societal norms,
the Tectonic Theatre Company revisits Laramie and many of the people portrayed
in the original play. This seminal event features the Cleveland premiere
of a live reading of this stunning piece by local actors – one of 100
taking place across the country – with an introduction via the internet
by playwright Moises Kaufman and a pre show discussion with local members of
PFLAG, LGBT Center, and Equality Ohio.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><b><u>Workshop: Moment Work with
Tectonic Theatre member, Greg Pierotti – October 8 & 9, 2009<o:p></o:p></u></b></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>Moment work is a method for both
writing and analyzing performance, which was developed by Moises Kaufman and
the members of Tectonic Theater Project. The common model for making
theater in the united states is the one in which a playwright goes into a room
over a period of months or years and creates a text. That play is then
handed off to a director who in three and a half weeks with a group of actors
and designers presents the text to the public, often without the writers input.
The job of the theater artists is to interpret the text and make it
believable. Moment work is a response to this somewhat limiting model of
making theater.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>In moment work, we create
performance from the ground up using all the elements of the stage at once.
The emphasis is on creating theatrical, rather than realistic,
performance. In level one of Tectonic's "moment work workshops"
the ensemble creates a list of the elements of the stage and, through a series
of exercises that build in complexity, uses all these
elements together to create moments rather than using all the elements of the
stage to simply support a text. A moment is defined as a unit of theatrical
time and can be as short and simple as a five second gesture, or as long and
complex as a moment from "The Laramie Project." We also learn
how to analyze the contents of moments to learn more about what is effective
story telling.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>In level two of the workshops, we
begin to look at structure, narrative, and context. The ensemble
continues to create discreet moments and starts to look at how to structure
these "units of theatrical time" into a complete event. We
examine how the moments speak to each other, how the content of moments informs
structure, as well as how the development of structure in a piece begins to
inform content so that moments need to be reconsidered and redesigned. We
take a close look at narrative and context and ask questions like: How
does narrative get created without text? How does moment A play when it
comes before moment B? What changes within the moment or about the story
we are telling when it is placed after moment B. What happens when they
play side by side. Attempts are made at creating a fully structured piece.<o:p></o:p></p>
