The play More Than a Number breaks down the walls between incarcerated citizens and the outside world. Originally written and performed by a group of men at the Nebraska State Penitentiary this play shatters misconceptions and reveals the common thread of our humanity. Sharing glimpses of life before prison, crucial moments of choice, life inside and their hopes for the future, the play creates a tapestry of lived experience. The tour cast is made up of men impacted by the correctional system and professional actors. Each performance will be followed by a community conversation highlighting those who have been impacted by the Nebraska correctional system.
