PPL constructs and produces performance art, opera, social projects, and other live situations. Practices are in flux between Brian McCorkle and Esther Neff's artistic work and organizational/collective initiativesdefined through relationships with public and private institutions, organizations, individuals, and sites. PPL's past work has included the Transformational Grammar of the Institutional Glorybowl trilogy, NATURE FETISH, and other operas, and many short-form and relational performances developed through residencies from LMCC (14 Wall Street Swing Space), chashama, University Settlement, Grace Exhibition Space, and IRT in NYC, Gruentaler9 in Berlin, and performed around the world. PPL is also a space on the edge of Bushwick. www.panoplylab.org

Lindsey Drury's (drearysomebody) past work has included Run Little Girl (Merce Cunningham Studio), I am My Shitty Little Box (Danspace),  and many collaborations, solos, writings, interactions, and actions designed for situations across disciplines, contexts, and countries. Drury is also the founder of the No Wave Performance Task Force and co-founder of The Woods Cooperative. www.drearysomebody.com
