Notes: | The material-simple responses to simple questions-is utterly illuminating and real. While it may not be surprising, it breathes flesh and blood into our ideas of truth and personal responsibility. From Julie Blumenthal's nytheatre.com review, August 2005. | |||||
Synopsis: | Using transcripts from his 2003 Criminal Perspectives project interviews, Perri Yaniv creates a constantly morphing discussion about how crime is defined by incarcerated men and women, ex-cons, police officers, administrators and victims. | |||||
