WHAT: The Cerritos College Theatre Arts Department and Associated Students invite you to the opening production for the 07-08 season: “Anna in the Tropics.” Harkening back to a time when cigars were hand-rolled in small, family-owned businesses, and lectors provided the only intellectual stimulation for the workers, this tale by Nilo Cruz follows a parallel to Leo Tolstoy’s "Anna Karenina."

Come experience the passion and intrigue that ensues in this Pulitzer Prize winner for Best Drama!
