Shakespeare at Notre Dame
I Am Worthy of Yes: Art as a Healing Mechanism in Community (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.
I Am Worthy of Yes: Art as a Healing Mechanism in Community
Beginning with a guided meditation to ground community during an unprecedented time, Mama Nia Wilson of SpiritHouse Inc. offers conference participants a moment to center themselves. The session continues with a discussion between Praycious Wilson-Gay and Mama Nia around the work of SpiritHouse Inc. and their choreopoem community intervention and ritual performance Collective Sun: Reshape the Mo(u)rning. They also discuss community care and what it looks like to use art as a healing mechanism in community. The session finishes with a video about SpiritHouse Inc. and the impact of their work in the Durham, NC community.
