Theatre NEMO hold workshops in Scottish prisons in conjunction with the Scottish Prison Service. We are currently holding workshops in HMP Barlinnie, which will culminate in a short film. Theatre NEMO will also be starting workshops in HMP Edinburgh in July. Please check back soon for more information.

Please visit our Prison Projects Archive to find out more about previous work that Theatre NEMO has carried out in Scottish Prisons.




BBC Scotland recently investigated the prison meltdown within Scottish Prisons, stating that there is:

"...increased tensions...all time high...all dangerous criminals should be imprisoned and all others to be punished in the community..."

These are just some of the startling comments raised by people working within the SPS, inlcluding the HMP Barlinnie Governor, Bill McKinlay. Please click on this link to view a short clip of the programme, which aired on Thu 9th April, 2008.
