Global Hive Laboratories

Global Hive promotes international collaboration to foster empathy, bringing relevance and dynamic conversation about the artist’s role in social justice and civilian responsibility to the entirety of the population.

Overview

Inspired by their international practice at London’s renown East 15 Acting School and a further desire to collaborate globally, directors Jack Paterson (BoucheWHACKED! Theatre Collective, Canada) and Denise Yvette Serna (U.S.A.) founded the Global Hive Laboratories.

Our goal: An international shared practice.

The first International Hive Workshop took place August 2017 and engaged artistic participants from Canada, U.S.A., Spain, U.K. Italy, France and China.  Some participated in London while other participated long distance through information and communications technology.
