Shakespeare in Prison│A Look Inside

Did you miss our webinar about Shakespeare in Prison’s process and outcomes?

Fear not! We recorded it! You can watch it right here or on YouTube, whenever you like.

Activity Packets

For 100 weeks, Shakespeare in Prison sent bi-weekly activity packs to incarcerated SIP ensemble members as a means of connection and engagement during a time when in-person programming was paused by the Michigan Department of Corrections as a Covid-19 safety precaution. We welcome you to use them however you like!

The Blog

From 2012-2020, SIP facilitators regularly updated a blog with an entry for each in-prison session and performance. And now, with our return in January 2023, we’re at it again!

But wait… There’s more!
