‘I DANCE IN THE HORROR OF GRIEF.’
Three men at Woodhill prison are dead. The families demand answers. This is a call to arms about the crisis facing prisons.
Gut punching choreography and unflinching beats shine a light on the hidden story of HMP Woodhill. Lyrically told in their own words, three families investigate what happened to their boys. What they discover is so haunting, it turns their world upside down.
Pushing the form of documentary theatre and dance, Woodhill is an explosive true story by multi-award-winning LUNG and originally developed with The North Wall.
