The Panoply Performance Laboratory (PPL) is a performance co-operative lead by Esther Neff and Brian McCorkle that follows a mission to encourage mass participation in the distribution of the sensible, investigate conceptual genealogies, socio-political structures, and experiment with performance as a mode of transmission. PPL creates music-driven, documentary-based performance works with a diverse array of collaborators, from all disciplines, fields, and walks of life. Additionally, PPL is dedicated to sustainable practices such as the use of recycled and found materials in production of portable, low-budget performance art, film, music, and theater for a diverse audience.

PPL has developed projects through the Residency@ chashama, Swing Space from LMCC, and currently through a residency at LPAC (Institute_Institut). She has shown work at Dixon Place, The Brecht Forum, Manhattan Theatre Source, Gathering of the Tribes Gallery, ABC No Rio, University of the Streets, The 13th Street Rep, Impact Theater, University Settlement, The West End Theater, the Brooklyn Arts Exchange, and in pop-up galleries, parking lots, and in collaboration with Dina Keller, on the Theresienwiese (where the Oktoberfest is held) in Munich GE, in public parks, and at The Public Theater.
