Yemaya's Belly

By Quiara Alegria Hudes

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.
