Dear Friends,


We would like to extend an invitation for you to join the students of Dartmouth College's MALS 364/ ENGL 53.4 /WGSS 66.5 "Telling Stories for Social Change" along with the male inmates of Sullivan County House of Corrections, for a collaborative and original end of term performance.  This Experiential Learning course, co-taught by Pati Hernandez and Ivy Schweitzer, offers students the unique opportunity to study our increasingly elusive, ever-growing incarceration system from two distinct perspectives, theoretical and practical. Students have focused on the issues prisoners face both inside and outside prison; incarceration, rehabilitation, and transition, while simultaneously exploring facilitation with critical analysis and self-reflection on the effectiveness of Experiential Learning and performance in rehabilitation. We would like you to join us in the culmination of this course - the creation and performance of an original production that focuses on the voices of inmates.


The performance is scheduled for THURSDAY, MAY 19TH at the Claremont Opera House and FRIDAY, MAY 20TH at the Sullivan County House of Corrections.

The time for both performances is 6:30 pm.
