Miss Nelson’s class is the worst-behaved in the whole school. One day, Miss Nelson does not come to school, and the class gets Miss Viola Swamp, the meanest substitute in the whole world. The search is on for Miss Nelson. Hopefully the students of Room 207 will find her before its too late – for them!

Monday, October 12th, 2009
The performance will be free, but donations towards the Matthew Shepard foundation will be gladly accepted.
On Oct. 12 as many as 100 theatres around the U.S. are expected to present a reading of a follow-up to the acclaimed play, The Laramie Project, the spare 2000 docudrama by Tectonic Theater Project that told the story of the 1998 murder of Matthew Shepard, a gay 21-year-old, in Laramie, WY.
Called The Laramie Project: Ten Years Later, the new piece includes re-interviews with subjects from the first play, plus an interview Tectonic artists had with one of Shepard's convicted killers, Aaron McKinney.
