Stages of Justice – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Stages of Justice takes you inside the world of theatre in the criminal justice system. For over fifty years, theatre companies have undertaken powerful creative projects at the heart of the British justice system, but because this work often takes place behind prison walls its impact is seldom seen by wider audiences. Through interviews with artists, prison staff, justice experts, and people with lived experience of incarceration we uncover the histories of these distinctive arts practices and examine how performance is navigating the contemporary crisis in our prisons. Across the series we reflect on the power of creativity to build human connection, spark change, and shift understandings of justice both onstage and off. Reflective, political and compelling, Stages of Justice shines a light on the potential of the arts in places you might least expect to find them.
