KNOW YOUR ENEMY
A Theatrical Examination of Police and Prison in America.
Written by Ben Turk, Directed by Kate Pleuss, Performed by Ben Turk – 90 minutes
insurgenttheatre.org

What does it mean to be a compassionate, dedicated, humane police officer in the country with the world's highest incarceration rate and a continuing tradition of racial injustice? Know Your Enemy examines the role of police using stripped down interactive theatre, critical understanding of history and the power of silent refusal. Know your history. Know your rights. Know your enemy.

PRESS RELEASE:
Prison Activists Spread Radical Critique Through Theatre
Radical DIY theatre group Insurgent Theatre is touring the country with a play about police and a documentary film about a prison uprising. The play will be performed in Cleveland on Tuesday, December 3. The play, entitled Know Your Enemy juxtaposes dramatic unraveling of a troubled officer with a radical interactive lecture about prisons, history, and resistance. The film, entitled Shadow of Lucasville revisits the 1993 prison uprising at a maximum security prison in the Southern Ohio town of Lucasville. The film will be followed by conversation with death-sentenced survivors of the uprising, who will be calling in from the Ohio State Penitentiary, Ohio's supermax prison.
Part of the money raised by this tour will go to support RedBird Prison Abolition, RedBird Books to Prisoners and The Lucasville Amnesty Campaign.
