The LAB is a three-day training course in Clean Break's practice and philosophy. It is for theatre artists who are passionate about women’s experiences, committed to social justice and interested in theatre practice in prisons, criminal justice, and community settings.
It is a unique opportunity to work over three days with Clean Break’s Joint Artistic Directors, Anna Herrmann and Róisín McBrinn, to learn in depth about Clean Break’s specialised approach to theatre and criminal justice.

Throughout the workshop the group will draw on Clean Break’s best practice, developed and refined over our 40 years in the industry.
Open to any participants who identify as a woman.
