Forrest, Conan Neutron, Kristina Oakes and McKenzie Wilkes of Criterion Connection and Austin Danger Pod talk about Greg Kwedar and Clint Bentley's Sing Sing

Starring Colman Domingo as falsely convicted playwright and actor Divine G, in this true story of the Rehabilitation Through the Arts program, which helped prisoners at Sing Sing Maximum Security Prison in Ossining, NY channel their feelings into THE THEATER

The story is by Kwedar and Bentley along with the REAL DIVINE G (John Whitfield, if you want to be boring) and Clarence "Divine Eye" Maclin, who also stars as himself in an incredible star turn.

Just to make sure to shout them out, David "Dap" Giraudy, Patrick "Preme" Griffin, Mosi Eagle, James "Big E" Williams, Sean "Dino" Johnson, Dario Peña, Miguel Valentin, Jon-Adrian Velazquez, Pedro Cotto, Camillo "Carmine" Lovacco, and Cornell "Nate" Alston all star as themselves.. real members of Rehabilitation Through the Arts.

The REAL Divine G has a cameo in one of the first scenes where he has Colman Domingo's "Divine G" sign his book.

Also, Paul Raci stars as Brent Buell.. the real Brent Buell is one of the Co-Producers.. and Sean San José stars with the rest of the cast as Mike Mike. #singing #colmandomingo #bestpicture #bestactor #divine #bestoriginalsong #academyawards #prison #jail #hamlet #kinglear #dutchess #dutchesscounty #fishkill
