ANNA IN THE TROPICS (winner of the 2003 Pulitzer) is a poignant and poetic play set in Florida in 1929 in a CubanAmerican cigar factory, where 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 begins to read aloud from Anna Karenina, he unwittingly becomes a catalyst in the lives of his avid listeners, for whom Tolstoy, the tropics, and the American dream prove a volatile combination.
