Mission of Pink Fang

Pink Fang creates art at the intersection of performance, community building, and social change, rooted in the ethos and artistic legacy of Ping Chong.

About the Organization

Pink Fang (formerly Ping Chong and Company; legal name Fiji Theater Company, Inc.) makes bold new works of performance and collaborates with generative artists, creating with curiosity, rigor, integrity, and provocation. Our approach to artmaking is through experimentation, blurring of discipline, and drawing from lived experience. A community of fierce care is core to all that we make and do. Pink Fang’s work lives in community centers, sacred spaces, theaters, and classrooms.

Based in the East Village, NYC at our longtime artistic home, La MaMa, we present and share our work all over the country and the world. Intertwined with the creation and support of new work, Pink Fang is also passionate about securing Artistic Director Emeritus Ping Chong’s legacy and activating scholarly and artistic engagement with his archive of work. The company’s approach to artmaking crosses disciplinary boundaries through innovative developmental processes that integrate engagement and producing practices.

Originally founded in 1975 by legendary theatrical innovator Ping Chong, the company has now completed a three-year planned transition following his retirement in 2022. Beginning on July 1, 2025, the company adopted a new name, and mission, as well as its permanent leadership team:
Artistic Director, New Work Mei Ann Teo, who creates new work and oversees collaborative projects with generative artists;
Artistic Director, Engagement, Sara Zatz, who creates new work in the Undesirable Elements series and oversees education and engagement programs; and Managing Director Jane Jung, who is responsible for financial, communications, and operational oversight.
