Quiara Alegria Hudes' Pulitzer Prize-winning play, Water by the Spoonful, focuses on a fractured Puerto Rican family whose members are doing their best to remain connected to each other and to have positive impacts on the world despite fighting against struggles such as addiction, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, divorce, and the ramifications of past mistakes. The play examines themes such as family bonds, guilt, racial identity, and redemption.
