As Cuba's aristocracy flees the country in the face of Castro's coup, a young cook swears to protect her mistress's home until the family returns. For the next 40 years, Gladys attempts to keep her promise as the dream of the revolution settles into a troubled reality. Spiced with unexpected laughter and the tantalizing flavors of a Cuban kitchen, The Cook will include select Spanish-language performances from a translation commissioned by Stages.
