Industry Reviews
"The best American play in forty years."
Craig Lucas
"A searching and radical rethinking of the whole esthetic of American political drama in which far-flung hallucinations, explicit sexual encounters and camp humor are given as much weight as erudite ideological argument."
New York Times - Frank Rich
"...[W]ith immense good humor and accessible characters...[Kushner] honors the gay community by telling a story that sets its concerns in the larger historical context of American political life."
New Yorker - John Lahr (11/23/1992)
"['Angels in America'] is about a decade and a zeitgeist which you just can't discuss without discussing the plague. So it's not a melodrama, like 'The Normal Heart', which I greatly admired, or a rant like 'As Is', which I greatly didn't. It's a meditation."
Vanity Fair - Tony Kushner (03/19/1993)
