Encounters, transformations, and reflections from in-prison and post-release theater workshops
See Me is a collection of intimate dialogues about collective experiences in the context of prison theater workshops. Each essay is a collaboration between two or three people who connected profoundly in the temporary community that a workshop can create. Part I is an exchange grounded in the prison theater workshop between the author and one of the incarcerated participants. They alternately tell the story of what they found in the workshop, each other, the future they imagined together, and the social turmoil and utopian aspirations of the times. Part II consists of essays jointly written by eight other people impacted by close relationships spawned in diverse in-prison and re-entry theater workshops.Languages:EnglishPublisher:New Village PressISBN-13:9781613322475ISBN-10:161332247XUPC:9781613322475Book Category:Social Science, Performing Arts, ArtBook Subcategory:Criminology, Theater, PerformanceBook Topic:PlaywritingSize:8.90 x 5.90 x 0.60 inchesWeight:0.8Product ID:SCKM7NPEZ9
