DESCRIPTION:The original musical drama OFF THE HOOK, set in a California prison and 
 featuring a 15-member cast of formerly incarcerated people, debuts in San 
 Luis Obispo Friday, Oct. 1 at 8 p.m. at Unity Church, 1490 Southwood Drive. 
 \n \nProduced by Poetic Justice Project, OFF THE HOOK has played in 
 Sacramento, Redding, Fresno, Bakersfield, Tehachapi, San Diego and Los 
 Angeles, with powerful audience responses. Poetic Justice Project received

 Council and the LEF Foundation to help fund its 2010 Prison Town Tour.\n 
 \nOFF THE HOOK examines the ever-present threat of violence and racial 
 segregation in prison. Separation from family, the danger of becoming too 
 close to others and, finally, the triumph of the human spirit come to life 
 in OFF THE HOOK. Each performance is followed by a talk-back with the 
 audience.\n \nThe play was written by Deborah Tobola, artistic director of 
 the Poetic Justice Project and directed by Bill McLaughlin, a professional 
 actor and director with more than 30 years' experience in stage and film. 
 Original music is by Shawn Collins. OFF THE HOOK stars Alaska Native film 
 actor Pius Savage, whose films include SPIRIT OF THE WIND and WHITE FANG.
