<br>
I would like to invite you to come see the show I am currently directing.<br>
<br>
It's the 3rd show in Cornerstone's Justice Cycle and it explores the themes of punishment and retribution within the justice system.<br>
It has rocked my world and is definitely the hardest thing I have every worked on very rewarding and terrifying.<br>
<br>
Let me know if you are able to come. It would mean the world to me.<br>
<br>
All my love,<br>
<br>

Let the punishment fit the crime
a simple principle at the center of a complex network of laws and ethics. As citizens trust in a system that places judgment and retribution in the hands of a few mortal individuals, is true justice even possible? As the state sends more offenders to prison, does crime actually pay? <br>
<br>
<i>For All Time</i> presents an in-depth look into the social, familial, and economic impact of criminal actions, the process of judgment and the system of incarceration. Created in collaboration with prisoners, formerly incarcerated, victims, family members, public defenders, prosecutors, activists and advocates, For All Time brings stories of crime and punishment to life and raises questions about the nature of retribution and the endless cycle of violence. As blood cries for blood, what role does forgiveness play in silencing the rage? <br>
<i>"Rest assured that Cornerstone's compassion and inclusiveness will be combined with a hot-button fearlessness."</i> - <b>Charles McNulty</b>, Los Angeles Times<br>
