JACOB THOMAN (Dancer) is a Filipino American movement artist based in New York City whose work weaves across multiple artistic channels.

JACOB WARREN (Dancer) stands at 6 feet, 6 inches, excels at seeing over people’s heads in crowds, and struggles in Economy Class on airplanes. He grew up playing soccer and saxophone, but spent most of his time trying to be a ninja, and really hasn’t let go of any of those influences. He is one half of Leggy Bones Physical Theater, one sixth of the Harmonica Lewinskies, and one whole gentle giant, despite playing hulking, violent villains the majority of the time. When he’s not teaching, choreographing, or performing, he’s probably shoveling noodles into his mouth, or trying to prove that gravity is a myth and youth is a lifestyle choice. 

ZOË WINTERS (Actor) will next be seen in Celine Song’s A24 feature, Materialists, opposite Dakota Johnson, Pedro Pascal, and Chris Evans. Winters is best known for her breakout role as Kerry on the HBO award winning hit series, Succession. She and the cast received a 2022 and 2024 SAG Award for Best Drama Ensemble.

Their upcoming film for PASTEL, Sorry, Baby, premiered at Sundance 2025 to rave reviews and was acquired by A24. Under their solo moniker OHYUNG, they produce genre-shifting music that moves between ambient, experimental pop, and distorted noise. In March 2025 they released You Are Always On My Mind, a hazy, trip-hop laced experimental pop record described by Paste as “an unpredictable masterpiece.” Their previous album imagine naked! is a collection of ambient soundscapes and was described by The Quietus as a “masterful selection of muscular, shuddering, trembling ambient excursions” and hailed by NPR as one of the best 50 albums of 2022.

MIA LIDOFSKY (Dramaturge) is a director and writer, who created, showran, and directed the comedy series Strangers on Facebook Watch. Vice Magazine called Strangers “the best queer comedy on TV right now” and Vulture hailed it as “a bighearted drama.” In addition to the show’s critical acclaim, Out Magazine named Mia as one of its OUT100. Mia got her start assisting various directors in the TV space before moving on to Beachside Films, where she worked as a producer and development executive. She was the Associate Producer on the documentary Tig and the narrative feature People, Places, Things, both of which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival. She is currently developing her next show, as well as her first feature film. Mia is over the moon to be making her Off-Broadway debut collaborating with her forever partner in life and storytelling, and is here to remind you that you never know where that rock has been. And that somebody probably peed on it.
