A Rose in Winter, a play in three acts, explores the history of Guadalupe, Our Lady of the Americas, from earliest times to her present influence in the contemporary world.

A dialogue between an Aztec noblewoman and a Spanish lady describes the conquest of Mexico and culminates with a snapshot portrait of infamous Malinche. Act II, told from the perspective of Juan Diego's sister, retells the miraculous story of Guadalupe's appearance. Act III portrays Guadalupe's myriad roles as mentor, guide and inspiration to healers, revolutionaries, artists and the everyday people of today's world.
