in 2008, the 'players' performed moises kaufman's "the laramie project", a controversial play about the murder of gay university of wyoming student, matthew shepard. "the laramie project" was selected as one of five mainstage shows at the 2008 michigan thespian festival at michigan state university, and the players were invited to attend the international thespian festival, but did not attend due to lack of funds, and because "the laramie project" is geared toward a small stage. the westboro baptist church of topeka, kansas, an anti-gay organization, sent three protesters to picket outside the building just as students were released on friday, november 21 (opening night). students and staff were featured in "the detroit news" on november 4, 2008, and "the detroit free press" and on channel 4 news (wdiv) on november 5, 2008, as soon as the church group announced their plans to protest. because of the extensive media attention and community interest, the 'players' performed all shows to sold-out audiences — a first in the history of the club.
