About The Book
"Shakespeare Behind Bars" is a compelling film that follows an all-male Shakespearean theater company composed of convicted felons. For one year, while incarcerated at Kentucky's Luther Luckett prison, the cast rehearse and perform a full production of Shakespeare's great last play, The Tempest.
From The Director, Hank Rogerson:
"The men in the Shakespeare program are criminals who performed the most heinous crimes, but some of them are also men with shame, remorse, and redemption in their hearts. Personally this was a very challenging film to make, since it deals with such deep issues as murder, truth, and forgiveness, both in the text of The Tempest, as well as in the lives of the prisoners. I was constantly struggling with questions such as: Should we rehabilitate criminals? How does art transform the human conscience? Do these men deserve any chance at recovery? What does it mean to forgive and why do we do it. I look forward to audience participation in the dialogue."
