Award-winning Puerto Rican play. In Marisol, Jose Rivera creates a theatre of magical realism that is laced with deadly black comedy and fantastic imagery. New York is on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Ohio is ablaze. Cows graze on astroturf. Credit card corporations run debtors prisons. The moon has disappeared and coffee is extinct. Armageddon approaches. The only chance of survival is for the angels to rebel, to kill the king of heaven and restore the vitality of the universe with his blood. But how will our heroine, Marisol Perez, cope in this crazed city when her guardian angel deserts her to join the war?
