Pork Filled Presentations

Mission

Pork Filled Productions is a theatre group that produces and develops genre plays, promotes Asian American and POC artists, and imagines fantastical, inclusive, and FUN universes. PFP envisions a bright universe informed by diverse experiences and perspectives populated by larger-than-life characters in worlds where everyone's story can be told.

Description

Pork Filled Productions/Players is the Pacific Northwest's longest running Asian American theatre group. PFP creates work that stretches the definitions of Asian American theatre, whether through sketch comedy (as Pork Filled Players) or through full-length plays (as Pork Filled Productions). We've been a longtime member of Seattle theatre and joyfully work with all parts of the community to advance Seattle Asian American theater artists.

PFP has a particular focus on genre work such as science fiction, fantasy, and horror, which are non-traditional subjects for Asian American theatre. In the past, we've presented Chinese pirate queens, supernatural romantic comedies, zombies/kung-fu/Shakespeare mash-ups, and steampunk extravaganzas.

For 2025

RISING

As the oldest Asian American theatre group in the Pacific Northwest, we have the responsibility to lead the community in our work on-stage. 

TOGETHER

We insure that the community's voice is heard. We produce shows for a desperately underrepresented group that aches to see their story on stage (20% of the population, 5% of the roles!). And we will bring Seattle’s Asian American stories to national stages! When we rise, we bring our communities with us!

Make us a POWERHOUSE of Asian American theatre locally and nationally by donating to our cause!!

 Our goal for 2024 is $5500 to produce and develop hopeful and fantastical theatre (like last year’s Vietgone). Give as little as $5, or as much as you want! Any amount packs a wallop! The first $1000 will be matched, doubling your punch! (And there are stretch goals!).

We have great projects for 2025!

• We just finished Instant Noodles! Our 24 hour play festival featuring Asian American talent! 

• Return to Joy Market, co-produced with Jet City Improv, new improv comedy and performances! 

• Unleashed 2025, a staged reading festival of NEW genre works by Asian American playwrights!

• Community Night! Bringing together community artists to mingle, meet and play!

• And in September, the Pacific Northwest premiere of Exotic Deadly: Or the MSG Play by Keiko Green, as we bounce through time and space to unlock the enigma of MSG! 

What a GREAT feeling, knowing we can come together to support Asian American communities, create art, and improve ALL of our lives.
