Performing Arts in Prisons
Intellect Books (Verlag)
978-1-78320-997-2 (ISBN)
Across the world, performing arts programmes are increasing in number, scope and professionalism. They attract increasing academic and media attention. Theoretical and applied research, organizational evaluation reports, documentary films and journalism are detailing prison arts and creating recognition that this body of work is becoming a valued part of the correctional enterprise. There is a growing body of evidence that suggests music, theatre, poetry and dance can contribute to prisoner wellbeing, management, rehabilitation and reintegration. Performing Arts in Prisons: Creative Perspectives explores prison arts in Australia, the United States, the United Kingdom and Chile, and creates a new framework for understanding its practices.
Professor Michael Balfour is Professor of Theatre and Performance at the University of New South Wales, Sydney. Brydie-Leigh Bartleet is Director of the Queensland Conservatorium Research Centre. Linda Davey is a psychologist, theatre-maker, arts educator and academic, and was Research Fellow with the Captive Audiences project based at Griffith University. John Rynne is Associate Professor in the School of Criminology and Criminal Justice at Griffith University. Huib Schippers is Affiliate Professor of music education at the University of Washington School of Music.
