ABOUT SORORITY

Founded, curated, and hosted by playwright and director Gina Young, SORORITY started in 2016 as a late night k-hole for new short works by women, trans, and queer performing artists.

Exploding almost overnight from a small Los Angeles salon into a huge and supportive community of creators with a cult following, SORORITY has gone on to produce staged readings, cabarets, and events that defy description at venues including The Hammer Museum, Rockwell, The Lyric-Hyperion, Los Angeles Performance Practice's LAX Festival, and upcoming at the Museum of Contemporary Art Los Angeles.

Ironically-named and intended to be an inclusive, non-gatekept space where new and seasoned performers create side by side in a supportive environment, SORORITY has presented hundreds of artists, spawning a new generation of live performance in Los Angeles, and countless spin offs.
