Anna In The Tropics

This poignant and poetic 2003 Pulitzer rize winning play captures 1929 Florida at a time when cigars are still rolled by hand and "lectors" are employed to educate and entertain the workers. The arrival of a new lector is a cause for celebration. But when he reads aloud from "Anna Karenina", he unwittingly becomes a catalyst in the lives of his avid listeners, for whom Tolsto, the tropics, and The American Dream prove a volatile combination.
