All Hands on Stage<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

All Hands On Stage (\u0391HOS)<\/strong> is a project co-funded by Creative Europe of which Teatro dei Venti is the lead partner, involving six partners from five countries: Italy, Germany, Serbia, Poland and Greece. The project aims to develop and test a training and accompaniment pathway for the professionalisation of inmates in the field of theatre (technique, scenography, costume design, lighting\u2026); to strengthen and enhance the skills of professional operators who already perform theatre activities in prison, through a comparison at European level; and to raise the awareness of the theatre audience and key stakeholders on the importance of this new professional pathway not only for the individual inmate, but for society as a whole.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brief Description of the Project<\/h6>\n\n\n\n

AHOS project puts a sensitive and not widely-known issue in the focus of attention, the one dealing with the social utility that Theatre inside prisons can create, as a real rehabilitative act for the people involved. AHOS wants to build and apply good practices in the prison environment for vocational training and job placement in the theatrical field, i.e. to create training paths for actors, technicians, costume designers, stagehands, etc. for the benefit of inmates and to support their reintegration into civil society.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project was created to address the situation in which most inmates find themselves once their sentence is over, i.e. the difficulty in applying the knowledge they learnt in prison and in finding work. The lack of tools to reintegrate into society, and thus to build stability, is a very fertile ground for recidivism. We want to act on this fragility, supporting the delicate transition from inside to outside.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This project is not about therapeutic methods. It has nothing in common with the pietistic approach to which Prison Theatre activities are often compared, that unfairly sees creative and social action as opponents. This project brings together professional artists who approach human beings inside prisons in a professional way. This project aims to rebuild dignity through learning a job. It is based on the assumption that everyone has the right to have a job, one that dignifies them and for which they can be responsible. It is about seeing theatre as an opportunity to learn, act and apply truly useful knowledge.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

AHOS link the worlds of theatre and prison, establishing a profoundly collaborative connection between their directions, both working towards making prisons an increasingly re-educational institution.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
