Night over Taos

Blurb

The play is set during one night, among rebels fighting hopelessly to prevent Taos from being absorbed into the United States, as the rest of New Mexico had been. Anderson depicts the imperialism of the Americans and the patriarchal culture of the Mexicans, but the play soon becomes a study of the tyrannical control of Pablo Montoya, the rebel leader with a soap opera problem: His two sons are in love with his two women, the older with the one he is about to ditch, and the younger with the one he is about to marry.
