SUMMARY:Penned Up
DESCRIPTION:Penned Up\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Penned Up\n\n\n\nCan words be the great escape? \n\n\n\nWelcome to HMP Ditchfield\, where each week\, a group of prisoners are tasked with writing their own plays. From boxing rings to the Brazilian rainforest\, from tragic pasts to wildly imaginative futures\, these men learn that theatre is more than words on a page – it’s a way to reclaim their voices. But as creativity collides with authority\, tensions rise\, secrets unravel\, and laughter turns to rebellion. \n\n\n\nWitty\, raw\, and full of heart\, Penned Up is a powerful celebration of storytelling\, second chances\, and the unexpected bonds that form behind bars. \n\n\n\nWritten by award-winning playwright Danusia Iwaszko\, who uses her more than 15 years experience of teaching playwriting to prisoners to explore what life is actually like behind bars. \n\n\n\nThink Porridge meets Brassed Off – both a laugh riot and a gut punch. \n\n\n\nSupported by Arts Council England\, Suffolk County Council\, Suffolk Community Foundation\, Synergy Theatre Project\, The Drapers’ Company\, Menagerie\, St Giles. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\nStandard – £21.00   \n\n\n\nConcessions – £17.00 \n\n\n\nAll prices include any booking fees \n\n\n\nDates & times: \n\n\n\nMonday 22 September 2025 at 7.30pm \n\n\n\nAge guidance: \n\n\n\n16+ \n\n\n\nLocation: \n\n\n\nThe Theatre \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout The Theatre Chipping Norton\n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n\n\nThe Theatre Chipping Norton\, sometimes called The Theatre\, Chipping Norton or Chipping Norton Theatre\, is a theatre\, an arthouse cinema\, a gallery and a concert hall in Chipping Norton. \n\n\n\nThe theatre has has 217 seats\, including stalls and a balcony. It is a resource for the community\, and it is also a professional venue\, welcoming over 55\,000 customer visits every year. \n\n\n\nIt is something unique\, but it is also different things to different people. It is the cause and subject of many arguments and debates; and a fair amount of acclaim and affection. It is complicated and a little eccentric. \n\n\n\nIt is not a little theatre. It likes to make a big noise. \n\n\n\nDiscover more about The Theatre Chipping Norton\, including travel\, access and venue information.
