Shaping a new generation of theatre

Polluted Light was founded by Zach DePaolo in January 2021 amidst the COVID-19 pandemic in an effort to create art for all in a virtual format due to the pandemic. Since then, we’ve expanded and evolved into something uniquely incredible- a platform for ALL people to tell stories.

The goal of PLTC has always been and will always be to accurately tell diverse stories. Our projects highlight queer and POC performers and creatives in an effort to accurately represent today’s world.

Our team is located across the continent with many members located in the NYC area. As the world (slowly) returns to normal, we are shifting into new theatrical formats. We can’t wait for you to see what we have planned!
