Poor Dog Group (PDG) is a Los Angeles–based collective known for ensemble-driven, textually informed performance. Founded in 2007 by CalArts alumni, the company builds intimate, documentary-style theater that weaves personal history with verbatim transcripts and live performance. PDG’s signature work, Group Therapy, emerges from actual therapy sessions and uses performance to illuminate collective and individual narratives. The group has cultivated partnerships with major cultural institutions and maintains a steady presence in LA’s experimental theater scene.
