It is a melodrama in four acts, with three settings and eleven characters. The story concerns a young Mexican woman who loves an injured American aviator while herself pursued by an ambivalent Mexican army officer. The action of the play takes place on three days over the course of a month. The production was widely known for showing an airplane crashing into the first act setting, an effect that used forty stagehands and required constant repairs and rebuilding. Wiki link
