SUMMARY:Play - Chinese Republicans
DESCRIPTION:Coming to Roundabout this winter\, Chinese Republicans is a biting new satirical drama from Alex Lin\, directed by Chay Yew.  \nThree high-powered businesswomen meet for lunch every month to discuss their latest career triumphs\, as they’ve done for decades. But the group is jolted when Katie\, a bright-eyed 24-year-old new to the workforce\, joins to navigate the world of corporate finance. As each of the women attempts to steer Katie towards what they’re certain is best\, they’re forced to grapple with how much they already have and are willing to sacrifice to climb the corporate ladder.   \nShifting between sharp-tongued humor and the harsh realities of modern capitalism\, this world premiere production explores themes of assimilation\, intergenerational conflict\, and gender politics in the workplace—all with unflinching wit and empathy. Chinese Republicans is a new play from a thrilling new American voice\, and tells a truly American story.

SUMMARY:Exhibition - LEGENDS: Athleticism in Asian/American Art
DESCRIPTION:LEGENDS: Athleticism in Asian/American Art explores the intersection of art and sports through the work of contemporary Asian and Asian American artists. While often considered distinct fields\, this exhibition highlights how sport and artistic expression serve as interconnected arenas. Featuring artists and collectives across a wide range of artistic media\, LEGENDS examines how artists of Asian descent engage with the shared language of art and sport to reflect identity\, nationalism\, the body\, and performance.  \nThe first exhibition to specifically focus on the relationship between art and sports within contemporary Asian and Asian American art\, LEGENDS will debut works by The Chinatown Basketball Club\, Kaarina Chu Mackenzie\, and Astria Suparak.

SUMMARY:Play - Jesa
DESCRIPTION:JESA by Jeena Yi\, directed by Mei Ann Teo\, is a riotous and heart-wrenching new play that explodes the idea of the “perfect family gathering.” When four estranged Korean American sisters reunite in Orange County to perform their father’s Jesa—a traditional ritual honoring the dead—old wounds erupt\, secrets surface\, and ghosts (literal and emotional) refuse to stay buried. With razor-sharp dialogue\, explosive humor\, and unexpected tenderness\, JESA asks how we honor our ancestors when we can barely stand each other. Come for the sibling brawls and burning shrimp\, stay for the aching truth of what binds us.

SUMMARY:Book Talk: The Complex: Karan Mahajan with Keith Gessen (Hybrid)
DESCRIPTION:Follow the illicit liaisons\, political ambitions\, and mortal betrayals of one prominent Delhi family in a sweeping novel from National Book Award finalist Karan Mahajan. \nThe Complex: The sons and daughters of SP Chopra\, one of India’s political architects\, live together in a sprawling Delhi complex\, vying for influence in a family shaped by the great man’s legacy. By the late 1970s\, the still-young nation is on the brink of transformation\, and the Chopras are scrambling to define their own futures. Sachin Chopra leaves for America\, followed by his bride\, Gita\, eager to forge a life beyond the pressures of the family compound. Yet Delhi keeps pulling them back—even as Sachin’s predatory uncle\, Laxman\, hounds Gita. A man of restless ambition\, Laxman ascends through the ranks of a rising Hindu nationalist movement\, caught between his political aspirations and his personal transgressions. As India erupts in violence and long-buried secrets come to light\, the embattled Chopras must reckon with the cost of power\, the weight of tradition\, and the shifting nature of love and allegiance. \nKaran Mahajan worked on The Complex during his 2018-2019 Fellowship at the Library’s Dorothy and Lewis B. Cullman Center for Scholars and Writers. He will discuss his book with writer Keith Gessen. \nTo join this event in-person | Please be sure to register for an In-Person Ticket.

SUMMARY:MOCA PERFORMS - Declaration of Independence\, Day 1
DESCRIPTION:Museum of Chinese in America’s Performing-Artist-In-Residence program welcomes a cohort of 3 performing artists to generate a theme-based project. This year’s theme\, Declaration of Independence\, encourages the resident artists to interrogate what it means to be “American\,” to see self-determination\, or to stake a claim to visibility\, freedom\, and belonging. \n  \nDuring this program\, the resident artists will present works-in-progress and share the creative vision behind their projects. Audience members will have the opportunity to engage in an in-depth conversation with the artists\, offering feedback\, asking questions\, and gaining insight into the cultural contexts and personal motivations that shape each work. \nJoin us for an intimate evening of artistic exploration\, dialogue\, and discovery.

SUMMARY:Bob Crawford & Alexis Coe: America’s Founding Son
DESCRIPTION:John Quincy Adams was born nine years before the signing of the Declaration of Independence\, and he died as the United States was sliding irrevocably toward Civil War. In between he was a foreign ambassador\, secretary of state\, sitting president\, and finally ex-president and sitting congressperson. In America’s Founding Son\, Bob Crawford—best known as the bassist for the Grammy-nominated band The Avett Brothers—traces Adams’s unparalleled life and career. He helped formulate the Monroe Doctrine\, which was evoked as recently as the day Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro was arrested. He is also the only ex-president to serve in Congress\, where he confronted slaveholders and challenged the nation to live up to its founding ideals.
