A mysterious entity visits an uninspired writer after he takes a job as a reader at a Cigar Factory in Ybor City. The entity vows to inspire the writer with a manuscript if he agrees to read to the factory workers, only the stories chosen by him. The stories chosen are of revolution and uprisings, launching an uproar at the factory inspired by the readings.

This play is expressed evenly through language and movement, in English, Spanish and popular music.

Story inspired by Josè Iglesias, from Studs Terkel's Hard Times: An Oral History of the Great Depression.
