Here’s more about Prison Dancer: the Musical
The lives of eight Filipino maximum-security prisoners are changed forever when a video of their dance-based rehabilitation program becomes a viral Internet sensation on YouTube. As the dark prison suddenly finds itself in the worldwide spotlight, these hardcore criminals are given a second chance to find love and happiness in the most challenging circumstances. A modern inspired-by-a-true-story about how fears can hold us captive — and dreams can set us free to dance!
If you’re in New York, look for the live musical at The Theater at St. Clements .
