In this May 20, 2014 photo, Antoine Davis of Dayton, Ohio, left, who is serving a 25-year sentence for drug trafficking and attempted murder, center, performs as Glinda the Good Witch, and Joseph Sims of Greene County, who is serving 8 years for forgery, performs as Dorothy in the Ross Correctional Institution's rendition of "The Wizard of Oz" in Chillicothe, Ohio. The production is the idea of Darwin Secrest, a corrections officer with 20 years of experience Secrest wrote down the idea, put it in his pocket and eventually passed it on to the administration. The warden said go ahead and try. Secrest needed guys to try out. He needed to get them to read the original book, then watch the movie and then create a play that worked inside a prison. Only then would there be rehearsals and set-building and costume-sewing. (AP Photo/The Cincinnati Enquirer, Carrie Cochran) MANDATORY CREDIT; NO SALES
