Playwrights Project partners with San Diego State University to present the 11th season of Beyond Prison Walls, featuring scripts written in our Out of the Yard program at Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility and Centinela State Prison.

These heartfelt and inspiring plays demonstrate the compassion and creativity of the writers in our arts in corrections programs. Students in SDSU’s School of Theatre, Television, and Film will direct and perform these short plays. Each performance includes all of the plays listed below and is followed by a conversation with audience, artists, alumni and representatives from the correctional facilities.
