An angelic revolt, urban chaos, social disorder and personal struggle all figure prominently in José Rivera’s 1991 drama Marisol. 
The millennium approaches.  There is Armageddon in Heaven and an Apocalypse on Earth.  God has become senile and the angels revolt, leaving humans to fend for themselves.  Without her guardian angel, Marisol ~ an Everywoman ~ struggles to live her life with some sense of normalcy.  In the face of imminent cosmological disaster, she manages to find compassion, courage, love, and humanity and in the end, her own sense of redemption.
 
Jose Rivera is one of our most celebrated Hispanic playwrights and MARISOL has been called “the Roman Catholic Angels in America.”  Rivera has won two Obie Awards for playwriting, a Kennedy Center Fund for New American plays Grant, a Fulbright Arts Fellowship in playwriting, the Whiting Writers' Award, a McKnight Fellowship, the 2005 Norman Lear Writing Award, a 2005 Impact Award and a Berilla Kerr Playwriting Award.
