We are looking for theatre directors, playwrights, choreographers and performance makers to take part in Common LAB 2023, an itinerant 8-week laboratory to experiment with collective and individual devices for knowledge sharing, and the development of artistic research, broadening European narratives.

Common LAB 2023 is part of Common stories, a project that brings together performing arts organisations, artists and audiences to address the dynamic notions of identity and diversity in a changing European society.
