by Caoimhe McAvinchey

Theatre and performance practice has the power to make visible the hidden world of the prison. This book explores how theatre makers stage critical questions about prison in society through specific texts and productions about prison, and theatre taking place in prisons. Theatre can, it argues, provoke much-needed public engagement with the very idea and politics of prison. Drawing on popular culture, dramatic texts and applied theatre, “Theatre & Prison” examines the link between performance and punishment, and illuminates the social, economic and cultural effects of incarceration.
