“Stories of Jackson Heights” questions the current immigration system in the US and depicts the trials and tribulations of a South Asian family caught in the throes of a harrowing immigration experience. The play is set in Jackson Heights, Queens, well known for its diversity and cosmopolitanism and therefore could very well be any community’s story.
