On Monday, join the University of Illinois Springfield Engaged Citizenship Common Experience Speaker Series (ECCE) for a presentation and discussion of the 2005 documentary film Shakespeare Behind Bars. The film, written and directed by Hank Rogerson and produced by Jilann Spitzmiller, documents Shakespeare’s final play, “The Tempest,” featuring inmates who have cast themselves in roles reflective of their personal history and fate. Their individual stories, including the details surrounding their crimes, are interwoven with the plot of “The Tempest,” to create an unforgettable story that highlights the creative process and the power of art to heal and redeem. The film was inspired by Curt Tofteland’s Shakespeare Behind Bars program which was officially founded in Kentucky during 1998.
