ALIENS is a play about cross-cultural love and greencard-marriage that explores the subtle and complex sides of the immigrant experience, challenging and using the stereotypes about love and marriage in New York. Does a marriage with an American citizen solve every problem? Is a greencard a strong enough reason for a marriage? ALIENS is a story about the American dream and its everyday nightmare.

ALIENS is based on true stories of immigration explored collaboratively by Shalimar Productions and fictionalized by a playwright who is trying to understand her own story.

Made possible by a LaGuardia Performing Arts Center Space Residency
