Chance Muehleck is a theatre artist, writer, and filmmaker based in New York and Los Angeles. He's co-founder of The Nerve Tank, an acclaimed independent theatre collective that produces hybrid, site-responsive work. He has collaborated with director Melanie S. Armer on many Nerve Tank pieces, including LIVE/FEED, Opal, and The Maiden, which was nominated for Outstanding Performance Art Production by the NY Innovative Theatre Awards. His durational, multimedia installation The Attendants was called “an important new development in performance” by the Village Voice and was presented by Arts World Financial Center to a worldwide virtual audience. His work has been developed in residence at Theatre Artists of Marin in California, and at Ensemble Studio Theatre, chashama, Dixon Place, and Incubator Arts Project in New York. Primary Stages commissioned him to write a short play on the American experience, which was then presented Off-Broadway. He is the recipient of the John Golden Award for Excellence in Playwriting and was a finalist for the Actors Theatre of Louisville’s Heideman Award.

Two of his monologues appear in the Audition Arsenal series published by Smith & Kraus, and United Stages published his short play Tagging April in the collection En Avant Playwrights. He wrote and directed the award-winning short films “Sponge” and "Advent," and his feature “The Vultures” was a finalist for the Slamdance Screenplay Competition. He recently placed third in the CineStory Fellowship and was a finalist for the Warner Brothers Television Writers Workshop in Los Angeles.
