Nilo Cruz’s Pulitzer Prize-winning play, Anna in the Tropics. The play takes place in 1929, and the world is changing around the group of Cuban exiles who have set up a small cigar industry in Florida. Machines are replacing hand rolling, and lectors. But in the factory where the play is set a new lector arrives and roils the placid community, because he is a handsome, passionate reader and because he has chosen to read Anna Karenina. Inspired by this book, the characters reexamine their lives, their work, and their relationships.
