Lauren Hall

I am a Lecturer in Theatre specialising in socially engaged arts practice, with a particular interest in learning disability theatre. My practice investigates the inclusivity and accessibility of theatre for people with learning disabilities.

I am also an active practitioner in the field, working as Leeds Playhouse's Learning Disability Programme Officer, predominately facilitating practical workshops within the Buzz Creative Arts Course. Much of my teaching and facilitating takes on a holistic approach in its process and delivery.
