Theatre in Prison

Theatre in Prison is the place where art enters spaces in which everything often seems to stand still, opening a human space before a scenic one. Through dance, music and shared work with inmates, Koreoproject builds paths in which the body can express itself again, the voice finds listening, and creation becomes a possibility for encounter, transformation and redemption.

Each project is born from a real experience made of presence, relationship and trust, where the performance is not only a final result but the visible sign of a deep journey.

Sacre Radici

Putting down roots and integrating through dance and song

A project by Koreoproject that brings art to the Lecce prison through singing and dancing workshops for inmates. An expressive journey that culminates in two shows, on 30 and 31 May 2025, where music, video and movement intertwine to tell the story of the resilience of the olive tree and the musical roots of Salento, with songs by Domenico Modugno reinterpreted by Luca Gemma.
