In 2026, Lab School continued its work across Sicily, placing young people, artistic practice and public space at the centre of a new cycle of cultural and educational activities.
The programme explored theatre and the performing arts as spaces for self-expression, encounter and collective creation. Through workshops and performances, participants were encouraged to reconnect with their bodies, explore emotions, develop awareness of their relationship with others and discover new ways of inhabiting shared spaces.
Raizes Teatro contributed to the 2026 programme through artistic direction, theatre training and the presentation of Depth Within – Anime dal Fondo, a performance created by Diletta Guglielmi and Chris Wayne.
The project brings together movement, physical theatre and contemporary performance to explore the inner dimension of the human being: what remains beneath the surface, what we carry within ourselves and what emerges through our relationship with others.
Lab School 2026 strengthened the connection between artistic education and community life, creating opportunities for young people to experience culture as a living process rather than simply as an event.
