Feedback Highpoint Prison Show

 

• It changed my life. I was really on the edge and this saved me. I am going to act now.

 

• I enjoyed the play and like the fact it's English culture

 

• Excellent morality play - very poignant lessons well managed. Very disciplined actors who were able to ignore all distractions. Thank you.

 

• It was good, didn't agree with it all but was something good to watch.

 

• I arrived late and enjoyed what I saw and thought these lot are a bit brave. I wondered what wings they were on and that I knew the prison officer - I was shocked to find out afterwards that they were not prisoners!

 

• It was okay as a whole but wouldn't normally watch something of that nature. The actors was good at what they do but wasn't really my cup of tea. It was different and was grateful that they took the time to visit.

 

• Possible break it into sections to help with attention span.

 

• I really enjoyed it.

 

• It was ok, good acting but got a bit bored after a while. Didn't really understand the moral of the story.

 

• I wouldn't mind seeing more

Letter from the Chair of the Employment Advisory Board. Hollesley Bay Prison.

Hi Danusia,

 

First of all, congratulations on a great play – it was fantastic. Secondly, I was coincidentally doing a session of mock interviews in Hollesley Bay on Monday and one of the interviewees had written the very piece you forwarded. He produced it during the interview and we talked about the play: he said how much it had meant to him, particularly as he really enjoys writing. He has a lot of challenges to deal with so building on his creative writing skills is really important for his future.

 

Best wishes,

George Vestey (Chair of the Employment Advisory Board. Hollesley Bay Prison.)
