For those of you reading this in Albuquerque, the Albuquerque High School theater kids are doing The Laramie Project over the next two weekends. It is the story of Laramie, Wyoming, in the aftermath of what happened to Matthew Shepard. My daughter, Nora, is in it, and I'm really proud of her and her theater colleagues for doing something important. You should go see it if you happen to live here.

Thurs. - Sat., this weekend (Sept. 30 - Oct. 2) and next (Oct. 7 - 10), 7 p.m., at the Albuquerque High School theater, 800 Odelia Rd NE. (Odelia is Indian School west of Interstate 25, enter the theater on the school's east side entrance.)
