The Hart of “Fearless”. The tide recedes. “We belong to each other”. Whatever you harbor within, it rises and falls with all those around. We see you. We hear you. We sing with and for you.
Considering Matthew Shepard
Performed by Kulshan Chorus at the Mt. Baker Theatre in Bellingham WA
In October of 1998, Matthew Shepard, a young gay student at the University of Wyoming in Laramie was kidnapped, severely beaten, tied to a fence, and left to die in a lonely field under a blanket of stars. Five days later, when Matt passed away, the world was watching. Approaching the eve of the 20th anniversary, Craig Hella Johnson has responded with his first concert-length work, Considering Matthew Shepard.

Kulshan Chorus and Sno-King Chorale (from Edmonds) joined forces to present a choral celebration of the late Stephen Sondheim’s music. Accompanied by Washington’s most talented instrumentalists, these performances entertained and inspired the audience. They were able to enjoy A Little Night Music during the day. The performance had you smiling 24 hours, inspiring you to take some time on Sunday in the Park or a stroll Into the Woods.
