Donate to Shakespeare in Prison today.
We can hardly believe it, but here we are: celebrating FOURTEEN YEARS of Shakespeare in Prison!
On February 7, 2012, SIP was founded by a small ensemble at Women’s Huron Valley Correctional Facility. We’ve come a long way since that cold February day when one woman walked in and asked, “What is Shakespeare?” We’ve been figuring it out together ever since—not only with nearly 300 people in prison, but beyond the barbed wire fence with SIP alums in our post-release program.
… if you’d like to join the celebration with a (tax deductible!) 14th Birthday gift!
On February 7, 2012, Shakespeare in Prison consisted of one volunteer and a 10-woman ensemble at Women’s Huron Valley Correctional Facility. Since then, nearly 300 incarcerated people have been part of SIP’s ensembles—including the men’s program at Parnall Correctional Facility (2017-19) and our workshops in partnership with Youth Arts Alliance (2017-18). Our facilitation team now has many years of combined experience.
Your support is crucial as we continue our work in prisons, and with SIP alumni post-release through Shakespeare Reclaimed.
But wait… There’s more!
