Trouble-D is a play about the challenges, obstacles and enticements a recently released prisoner faces in the outside world.
It will be performed at Otago Corrections Facility at Milburn - where writer Ruth Carraway runs the prison drama group - as a first for the Dunedin Fringe Festival.
Ruth has actually got two shows in the Fringe. The other's called Lavvies, set in a women's public toilet.
Ruth tells Lynn Freeman she's worked with prisoners here and in the UK, and she's a firm believer in the power of theatre to help both inmates and audiences.
She started the prison drama group about five years ago, and proceeds from Trouble-D will go to the Dunedin Night Shelter. The show and Lavvies are both part of the Dunedin Fringe Festival programme
