Sing Sing (MA 15+)

Nominated for three Oscars including Best Actor (Colman Domingo) and Best Screenplay!

Based on a remarkable true story. Academy Award nominee Colman Domingo stars as Divine G, imprisoned at Sing Sing for a crime he didn't commit, who finds purpose by acting in a theatre group with other incarcerated men. When a wary outsider joins the group, the men decide to stage their first original comedy, in this stirring true story of resilience, humanity, and the transformative power of art, starring an unforgettable ensemble cast of formerly incarcerated actors.
