Please join us on Monday, September 15th at 6:30 pm on KBOO Community Radio for Prison Pipeline as we talk with actor Paul Susi and composer Anna Fritz about their performance of An Illiad which has been travelling to correctional facilities around Oregon and is about to go on a tour of prisons in the Midwest and Northeast.
“An Iliad” is a play by Denis O’Hare and Lisa Peterson, adapted from the Robert Fitzgerald translation of Homer’s Iliad. Paul Susi has been touring this production to prisons, with live cello music composed and performed by Anna Fritz. Their work knits together audiences on both sides of the prison walls by using one of the world's oldest stories to examine the cycles of violence, trauma, displacement, and hope for healing.
