Playing for Time Theatre Company: Perspectives From the Prison (2019) McKean, A., & Massey-Chase, K. (Eds.)(Preface by S. Busby)
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
Playing for Time Theatre Company: Perspectives from the Prison is an edited collection of 12 essays that reflected upon a decade of theatre productions in Her Majesty's Prison (HMP) Winchester, England, between 2003 and 2014.The collection encompassed a multiplicity of voices that allowed readers to consider the phenomena of prison live theatre from the perspectives of the director, creator, historian, criminal psychologist, and inmate.Clearly written by deeply committed practitioners, the book is a powerful and inspiring reminder of the vital role that the arts can play in the rehabilitation of offenders.For Canada, where efforts to integrate the arts into prisoners' lives lag behind those of prisons in the United States and the United Kingdom, the book provided a "wake-up call" regarding the potential for the arts to have a positive impact on the lives of prisoners, rates of recidivism, and society as a whole.Annie McKean was a senior fellow in Knowledge Exchange at the University of Winchester and the artistic director of Playing for Time Theatre Company.She was the editor of the collection and author or co-author of six of the 12 chapters.In the introduction, she clearly and capably provided the context for all that follows, highlighting the importance of the drama work that she led, and the arguments in the book.McKean briefly described the sudden and bewildering changes to the management regimes of HMP Winchester; these changes ultimately led to the cancellation of the theatre project while outlining the grim state of the UK prison service as a whole.The statistics that she provided support her portrayal of the system's "state of crisis" (p. 6) at the time of writing, which was at the end of 2017.The theory that "prison works," she wrote, has led over the last 20 years to a doubling of the UK prison population to a nearly 85,000.Meanwhile, budget cuts have led to smaller prison staffs and corresponded with a rise in destructive behaviours among inmates cooped up in overcrowded cell blocks: "Drug use in prisons in the United Kingdom is at epidemic levels and violence and self-harm have increased exponentially" (p. 6).Meanwhile, McKean reported, "almost half of all prisoners are reconvicted within a year of release," and the cost of reoffending by former prisoners "is estimated to be up to £15 billion a year" (p.8).Against this disturbing national context, McKean defined the meaning of the word desistance, which is "generally understood as a process involving change that will lead from an offending lifestyle to one of non-offending" (p.8).Among the contributing factors to desistance is a shift in identity construction, in which the development of "self-expression, reflectivity, empathy and imagination" (p.8) all provide offenders with new ways of presenting themselves

Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
