Assemblywomen Project (2020-2021): Helping Women in Prison to Discover Their Own Voice through Theatre
Angelopoulos, Tasos
Research in Drama Education, v28 n2 p273-278 2023
The paper presents the Asseblywomen Project, conducted by Papalangki Theatre Company during 2020-2021 at the Women's Prison in Eleonas (Greece). Using as rehearsal material the comedy play "The Assemblywomen" by Aristophanes, the project aimed to encourage the participation of ex-drug addicted inmate women at the rehabilitation process, and to help their empowerment both on individual and collective level. By improvising the play's scenes, the women became more aware politically and managed to express their own thoughts and feelings.
