In September 2019, inmates at Sterling Correctional Facility took the play “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest,” on tour to different prisons throughout the state. This unprecedented tour started at Sterling Correctional Facility and then made stops at the Denver Women’s Correctional Facility and Limon Correctional Facility.  These performances were part of the University of Denver’s Prison Arts Initiative. This initiative gives inmates the opportunity to participate in a therapeutic arts program. You can find out more about the performances and the Prison Arts Initiatives using the links below. New York Times wrote an article about this performance which can be found here
