Ask Angola Prison: What difference can a play?
Season 3
Episode 320
Award-winning actress and writer Liza Jessie Peterson performed her one-woman show in dozens of prisons before visiting Louisiana's Angola Prison. Although she had permission to perform and bring a camera crew, authorities at the prison shut down the play in the middle of her performance. That day is the subject of the MTV documentary 'Angola Do You Hear Us? Voices From a Plantation Prison."
