With support from the California Arts Council, The Strindberg Laboratory will participate in a board development training workshop with five of its board members. This training will allow The Strindberg Laboratory team, with its varying strengths, professional backgrounds, and additional board experiences to collectively learn the same training materials. They will subsequently report upon and discuss their training experience with the organization’s entire board.
The Strindberg Laboratory (TSL) provides theater workshops, facilitates training, shepherds productions to otherwise marginalized communities. Our core organizational programs have included Break It To Make It, an unprecedented partnership that provides an integrated pipeline of support through theater arts, higher education, and rehabilitative service for incarcerated and formerly incarcerated individuals. Another core TSL service is our Community-Based Workshops. In recent years, TSL has worked with homeless, LGBTQ+, and autism spectrum communities, with some of these workshops culminating in public productions. The third core aspect of TSL’s programming is our community-driven productions. In this regard, TSL is developing a new production of “Macbeth,” and also co-created “No Labels, No Walls,” an international arts group working for a more inclusive and equal world. The group launched with its first festival in September 2019, which took place in Helsinki, Finland.
