As of July 1, 2025, PCC is now Pink Fang!

We create bold new works of performance. We are a home for daring artistic experimentation, where we expand the boundaries of theater and nurture creative communities of care. We are generative, collaborative, and our co-creation process digs deeply into community-specific histories and narratives.

On Monday, June 23, we  announced our new mission, leadership team, and name at a vibrant gathering held at La MaMa Galleria, part of our long-time La MaMa home on 47 Great Jones Street. Over 100 artistic collaborators, cast members, community partners, current and former board members, teaching artists, and friends came together to celebrate the past 50 years of artistic creation and community care, as grounding for the next chapter of our collective journey.
