Anna in the Tropics
By Nilo Cruz
Directed by Laura Alcalá Baker
Featuring Core Ensemble Member Charín Alvarez
February 8 – March 19, 2023
The first major revival in Chicago in 20 years!
In a Cuban American cigar factory just outside Ybor City in 1929, a charismatic lector reads Anna Karenina aloud to pass the hours. As Anna’s passions are enunciated, the workers’ hidden desires bubble to the surface, becoming a powderkeg that must eventually explode in the Florida heat. Nilo Cruz’s passionate classic shines an unrelenting light on the search for identity in the American landscape.
