directed by José Carrasquillo

The 2003 Pulitzer Prize in Drama winner is set in 1920’s Ybor City, Florida, where family members who work in a cigar factory struggle to reconcile the traditions of the past with their desires for the future. Passions erupt and emotions flare as the laborers embrace the unfamiliar ideas presented to them by a new arrival in their midst, who reads Anna Karenina aloud to them as they work, with life-altering consequences.

Adult language and themes. Not recommended for children under 13.

This performance is part of the Anna in the Tropics Engagement Project:
