The Circle

NaN•12m•

The Circle was written by nine men during a 10-week theatre workshop held on A yard at the California State Prison in Los Angeles County. When all California prisons shut down during the middle of the workshop due to COVID-19, the men were unable to perform their work in front of a live audience. Instead, five actors from Project Re/Frame Ensemble, a theatrical group of formerly incarcerated individuals, bring their words to life in this visual performance piece filmed on location and on Zoom.
