By now you should have watched “Shakespeare behind Bars” — a documentary film about a production of Shakespeare’s The Tempest by inmates at the Luther Luckett Correctional Complex in Kentucky. The film examines how a “classic” travels into a very different world than the ones we have been considering so far in our class.
Please write a post that uses some of the themes and issues we have addressed in our discussions of Shakespeare’s and Césaire’s plays – authority, race, power and the state, the power of art, violence – to discuss the way that Shakespeare’s play travels into the society that is the prison.
