Angels in America
| Tony Kushner
| Available for the first time in one volume, the two parts of Tony Kushner's masterpiece together constitute 'the finest drama of our time, speaking to us of an entire era of life and death as no other play within memory.
'In it's sweet and imagination, it defines the collapse of a moral universe during the Regan years in an unforgettable way, transcending its specific time in the richness of its portrait of an America Lost, perhaps to be regained...
'It's a pretty funny play, too. How we still need it! It ranks as nothing less than one of the greatest plays of the twentieth century.' (John Heilpern, New York Observer)
Originally premiered in Britain at the National Theatre, where it won the Evening Standard Best Play Award, Angels in America went on to win two Tony Awards and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. This volume is published alongside the first major national revival directed by Daniel Kramer and presented by Headlong Theatre, Citizens' Theatre Glasgow and Lyric Hammersmith.
