Photo Coverage: First look at Warehouse Theatre's ANGELS IN AMERICA

By: Jerri Shafer Jun. 19, 2016

It's 1985. Reagan is backing a culture of ruthless self-interest. The cold war is ending. The ozone layer is melting. New Yorkers are learning how to survive a plague. It's at this tipping point that the great work begins.

Prior has big news. And his firebrand leftie boyfriend isn't coping with it. Harper is popping pills as fast as she can; her husband is wrestling with truth versus reality. Roy is ravaged by sickness but clinging on to corruption. Told with exuberance, wit, energy and an almost apocalyptic sense of play, Tony Kushner's wild fantasia carries the audience headlong through an astonishing theatrical landscape populated by communists, capitalists, Mormons, rabbis, mothers, homos and ghosts.

Great plays always have something to say to us. This one has the pulse of the urgent present. It is dramatic. It is hilarious. It is melodrama. It is soap opera. It is heroic. It is daring. It is human. It is all of the things. And that's only half of the story.
