It's 1519, Hernan Cortes has landed in the Yucatan Peninsula, and what he needs most is a translator he can trust. Gonzo, a fellow Spaniard shipwrecked a decade earlier, who has made a life with the Maya, would be the perfect interpreter. But has he become more Mayan than Spanish? Can he be trusted to interpret the language of Conquest? Does he have a different idea for an intermixing of culture, race, and spirit – minus the sword? A play based on the precise historical moment when the American identity was truly up in the air.
