Shakespeare at Notre Dame
If I Ran the Shakespeare Prison Project: Alumni of the Shakespeare Prison Project (SiPC4)
Why Shakespeare Now?
The 4th International Shakespeare in Prisons Conference (SiPC4) gathers theatre arts practitioners, researchers, and scholars who are currently engaged with or interested in programs for incarcerated (and post-incarcerated) populations. SiPC4 stimulates discussion through speakers, performances, and workshop sessions offering case studies and best practices within the prisons arts movement.
If I Ran the Shakespeare Prison Project: Alumni of the Shakespeare Prison Project (SiPC4)
Formerly-incarcerated actors share their thoughts about "best practices" and new possibilities for prison Shakespeare programs. Drawing from their own experiences, insights, and ideas about "what would make life more wonderful," participants explain how they would design and facilitate a program. Participants include Steven James, alumnus of The Shakespeare Prison Project (Australia), and Michael Shortt and Haisan Williams, alumni of The Shakespeare Prison Project (Wisconsin). The conversation is facilitated by Rob Pensalfini, Artistic Director, Queensland Shakespeare Ensemble, and Founder/Director, The Shakespeare Prison Project (Australia), and Jonathan Shailor, Professor of Communication, University of Wisconsin-Parkside, and Founder/Director, The Shakespeare Prison Project (Wisconsin).
