Woodhill
'I dance in the horror of grief.'
Three men at Woodhill prison are dead. Their families demand answers. This is a call to arms about the crisis facing prisons.
Gut-punching choreography and unflinching beats shine a light on the hidden story of HMP Woodhill. Lyrically told in their own words, three families investigate what happened to their boys. What they discover is so haunting, it turns their world upside down. An explosive true story by multi-award-winning LUNG and The North Wall.
Before coming to see the show, we recommend every audience member accesses our pre-show wellbeing pack. Scroll down to access this, our post-show wellbeing pack and information about joining the #NoMoreDeaths Campaign.

Dear Prison Staff
The Woodhill Families Group have made a video for anyone that works within prisons and may be supporting families who’ve been recently bereaved. These are their words, and their message to you.
This film was funding by the University of Nottingham.
Dear families
