Moisés Kaufman spoke last evening at the CFA Cinema at Wesleyan [free]. He discussed his writing of 'The Laramie Project' and matters concerning the direction of modern theater. He was a very engaging speaker and the cinema was packed. Liz Lerman of the New York Dance Project was in the audience. She greeted me but I am sure she didn't remember that I was a 'star' pupil of hers during the summer of 2005.

'Groundbreaking writer/director Moises Kaufman will discuss his innovative methods of creating film and theater works that address issues of democracy in America. Moises Kaufman is a Tony- and Emmy-nominated director and award-winning playwright. His plays Gross Indecency: The Three Trials of Oscar Wilde and The Laramie Project have been among the most performed plays in America over the last decade. Mr. Kaufman is also the founder and Artistic Director of Tectonic Theater Project, a laboratory for new works in theater and film based in New York'. from Wikipedia

He is also the author of "I Am My Own Wife' which I saw at Hartford Stage last year.
