ANGELS IN AMERICA

PART ONE: MILLENNIUM APPROACHES
and
PART TWO: PERESTROIKA

by tony kushner
directed by CHARLES ASKENAIZER

Tony Kushner’s two-part, Pulitzer Prize-winning expansive, poetic, and politically-charged look at the ‘80s in America. In the midst of the AIDS crisis and a conservative Reagan administration, New Yorkers grapple with life and death, love and sex, heaven and hell. A single cast will perform both parts of Kushner’s epic play in repertory, allowing audiences the option to experience the characters’ entire stories over a single day or successive days.
