In partnership with Texas After Violence Project and presented by The Pulitzer Center, The End of Isolation Tour is coming to Austin!
The End of Isolation Tour brings The BOX -- immersive, transformative theater -- to communities across the country on the front lines of imagining a world without prisons and the torture of solitary confinement.​
As a means to reach audiences to enact political change (legislative art) and to engage people to promote healing through drama and artistic ritual (therapeutic theater), The End of Isolation Tour centers around the play, The BOX, which underscores both the horror of solitary confinement and the humanity of people subjected to it, employing stories inspired by true events to bring awareness to the state-sponsored atrocities occurring in correctional institutions across the country.
The BOX is written and directed by Sarah Shourd, who was held in solitary confinement for over 400 days as a political prisoner in Iran. After discovering the prevalence of solitary confinement in the United States, she collaborated with other survivors and together, they have brought this project to life.
