The Performing Garage is a 110-seat street-level historic black box theater located at 33 Wooster Street in Soho.

The Performing Garage has been The Wooster Group’s permanent home and performance venue since the Group’s beginning, and all of our work was developed there. The Group owns and operates The Garage as a shareholder in the Grand Street Artists Co-op, which was established in the late 1960s as part of the Fluxus art movement. Richard Schechner’s theater company, The Performance Group, worked in the space from the late 1960s through the 1970s. In 1975, Elizabeth LeCompte and Spalding Gray began making work at the Garage. Prior to its life as a theater, the Garage was a metal stamping/flatware factory.
