Praise for the play:
Angels in America is the broadest, deepest, most searching American play of our time.--Jack Kroll, Newsweek
A vast, miraculous play . . . provocative, witty and deeply upsetting . . . a searching and radical rethinking of Ameri-can political drama.--Frank Rich, The New York Times
Something rare, dangerous and harrowing...a roman candle hurled into a drawing room . . . --Nicholas de Jongh, London Evening Standard
Playful and profound, extravagantly theatrical and deeply spiritual, witty, and compassionate, furious and incredibly smart . . . It's impossible to imagine anyone captivated by the beginning not wanting--needing--to go back for the end.--Linda Winer, Newsday
An enormously impressive work of the imagination and intellect, a towering example of what theatre stretched to its full potential can achieve.--Clifford A. Ridley, Philadelphia Inquirer
Perestroika is a masterpiece.--John Lahr, New Yorker
