Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art, Theatre13, and Warrior Artists Productions are proud to present the world premiere of the staged adaptation of "Prison Writings: My Life is My Sun Dance" written by imprisoned human rights activist Leonard Peltier with Harvey Arden. Convicted of murder in 1976, Peltier has been incarcerated for thirty-one years. Many believe that he was unjustly convicted and unfairly imprisoned. In 1999 he published "Prison Writings" a collection of essays, poetry and reflections on more than thirty years of activism from behind prison walls. Peltier's play is a deeply moving account of one man's struggle to survive prison life while working for healing, forgiveness and fair treatment within an inherently flawed justice system.

"His case is perhaps the prime example of the American government's continuing failure to resolve its longstanding mistreatment of Native America," says Theatre13's co-managing director Judson Webb. Webb and Paul Soderman of Warrior Artists, the producers of "My Life Is My Sun Dance," say they are compelled to give voice to the story of this man's struggle to serve his people. "Our hope is that the U.S. government will take responsibility for its mistakes and be the government we expect it to be, a government that seeks justice rather than vengeance," says Webb.

Ticket prices will be general admission $25.00. Thursday ticket prices are two for one with curtain at 7:00 p.m. Friday and Saturday shows are at 8:00 p.m. All Sunday matinees are $10.00.
