Intra muros

Within the walls of a prison, a simple theater workshop becomes the setting for an unexpected confrontation. When a director comes face to face with two inmates, what starts as a fictional exercise quickly spirals into a disturbing reality. The invented stories bear a strange resemblance to memories; buried secrets begin to surface. What if this workshop was no accident? Intra Muros immerses the audience in a psychological closed-door setting where the line between performance and confession blurs. As the dialogue unfolds, an old case takes shape—a disappearance, shattered lives, and irreversible choices. In this inescapable space where it's impossible to run or lie, all masks eventually fall. This play-within-a-play explores the power of words and silences, transforming the stage into a place of brutal truth. A piece where every glance is a clue and every silence, a confession. With Intra Muros, Alexis Michalik draws us into the heart of the prison world and opens an unexpected window into the human story.
