Angels in America: Part One – Millennium Approaches is a bold, sweeping drama set in 1985 at the height of the AIDS crisis. Tony Kushner’s Pulitzer Prize-winning play follows the intersecting lives of New Yorkers confronting illness, identity, love, and politics. As relationships fracture and reality blurs with the supernatural, a powerful angel descends to declare a new prophecy. Poetic, humorous, and deeply human, this groundbreaking work explores what it means to survive and change in a world in crisis.
Join us for performances September 12–21. Don’t miss this unforgettable journey through fear, hope, and transformation.
