FullStop.LAB

FullStop.LAB is the creative incubator of the Collective’s signature work. The LAB is designed to nurture the growth of long-term projects conceived by Collective leaders.

The LAB provides support in four areas:

  • Time, to create without a performance deadline;
  • Space, to explore both physically and intellectually;
  • Funding, to financially release participating artists so they can focus on the work;
  • Community, to respond to the process via creative support and workshop feedback.

The goal of the LAB is to cultivate ambitious ideas into performance-ready pieces, and collaboratively illuminate a unique future path for each project.
