Honored to be part of the 2026 Incubator for Executive Leaders of Color cohort with @nyfacurrent To be in a room with artists and leaders who are building, questioning, and shaping what our field can be means a lot. This kind of space matters. Not just for growth, but for alignment, accountability, and vision.

🎭 After its March 7 premiere, ExtraO1dinary Aliens! — a compelling new play by Vietnamese-American playwright Carolina Đỗ and directed by Romanian-American artist Vas Eli — continues this week at JACK in Brooklyn. We’re sharing a few images from the production and warmly inviting our community to discover this powerful and timely show. 🌍 Presented by Betterfly Productions, Leviathan Lab, and JACK, in association with The Hearth Supported Productions and The Sống Collective, the play brings together an immigrant and first-generation cast and creative team, reflecting the lived experiences behind the story on stage. 💔 At the center of the play is Corneliu, a Romanian immigrant in love with Kay, a U.S. citizen. Around them, a circle of friends navigates the fragile realities of visas, expiring documents, artistic dreams, and uncertain futures. As relationships deepen and pressures mount, the play asks urgent questions: What makes someone leave everything they know for a new country? What makes someone stay despite a hostile system? And can the promise of the American Dream truly become reality? 🎬 Creative team: Playwright Carolina Đỗ | Director Vas Eli | Co-producer Maria Müller | Line producer Federica Borlenghi | Assistant director & stage manager Isabel Criado | Projection designer Michi Zaya | Lighting designer Jiahao “Neil” Qiu 🎭 Cast: Vas Eli, Julie Tran, Maria Müller, Belle Le, Marlon Xavier, Matthew Zimmerman 🇷🇴 We are especially proud to see Romanian artists represented on the New York stage and invite the Romanian Cultural Institute community to support this vibrant, multicultural production highlighting immigrant voices in contemporary theatre. 📅 Remaining performances: March 11, 12, 13, 14 | 7 PM 📍 JACK — 20 Putnam Ave, Brooklyn 🎟 Tickets: /en-US/ticketing/extrao1dinary-aliens 📸 @tudorcucu #werecommend #romanianartistsabroad #nyctheatre #immigrantstories

Happy opening to Carolina Đỗ and the entire team of Extra01dinary Aliens. We are so excited to celebrate this moment with you. Here at JACK, we love creating new traditions. One of our favorites is asking the lead artists of each production to sign our JACK boombox. It is our way of making sure a piece of them stays in the space. Because the truth is, the artists and the work they make are what shape JACK. Every show leaves its mark. Every artist becomes part of the room. Congratulations to Carolina and the whole Extra01dinary Aliens team on your opening. We are so proud.

We are proud to welcome Brandon JonesMooney as a 2026 JACKlabs Resident Artist. What we love most about Brandon is that he is not afraid to tell the truth and be vulnerable. This is who he is. Honest. Open. Raw. He meets the world and the work with his whole heart, and it is powerful to witness. During his residency at JACK, Brandon will be developing An Exercise in Vulnerability, a new piece about a Black man from Oakland searching for joy and purpose while navigating the realities that shaped him. We are proud to hold space for the birth of this work and deeply excited that Brandon is building it here with us at JACK. Welcome, @brandonjonesmooney_dislikes_ig
