<p>It’s almost hard to believe things are still this backward. D’s high school did The Laramie project 5 years ago. Didn’t give a lot of thought to it-- it’s a good play, that’s all. I’m sorry to hear this kind of immaturity still exists. </p>
<p>D was very concerned about the kind of theater her school would do. She wanted the whole range, from Euripides to Sarah Ruhl-- wanted to be comfortable with the whole theatrical canon. I think it’s very important to see what kinds of shows a school does-- what they value. There are lots of different approaches too-- some lean much more toward contemporary theater and some focus on classical theater, etc…so you really need to look carefully.</p>
