What is Studio NPG?
Studio NPG is a teaching and performance space owned and operated by New Performance Group. Creative Director Lua Hadar founded NPG in 1990, bringing it to San Francisco's Goodman 2 artist loft complex in 1995. 

New Performance Group has produced classes, workshops, performances, CDs, events, and international exchange in its 20-year history, but only in 2010 did it become a teaching, rehearsal and performance studio.  

Studio NPG, located in the Potrero section of San Francisco, California, offers classes and workshops for professional performers and for developing performers, Salon Concerts, Events, New Works development, and International Exchange.

MISSION

New Performance Group and Studio NPG are dedicated to deepening intercultural communication and exchange through the performing arts and arts education. 

Communication and exchange occur within "micro-cultures" living in the same city, or may stretch across oceans. In either case, the larger goal is mutual understanding,  which on a global level promotes peace and harmony in the world. This philosophy informs our work, whether on stage or in the classroom.
