Quiara Alegria Hudes

Published by Dramatists Play Service

3 Male 2 Female

A Cuban boy is born into a humble farming family, but after his first taste of cold Coca-Cola, he dreams of a world beyond his family's meager acre

Naively yearning to meet the "President of America," the play follows his epic journey into manhood and materialism, from farm, to city, to a raft sailing to the New World

"The writing continually blooms with poetic turns and illustrative stories" ~ Washington Post

"It entertains us and shows us the power of the human spirit" ~ Times Record

"Rhythm and cultural texture are the real stars of this production, and Hudes' script is a recipe for stagecraft of the most energetic and whimsical flavors" ~ Portland Phoenix
