Angels in America -- in Utah & New York

This Broadway play explores family, relationships, Mormonism, drug addiction, homosexuality and a call to prophethood by a Moroni-like angel.  It won the Tony for best play in 1993 and 1994.

Angels in America

In 1995, Salt Lake Acting Company was one of the first regional theaters to
produce Tony Kushner's seminal play "Angels in America." SLAC's Keven Myhre says it's a work that helped define the company, so it made sense to make it part of the 40th anniversary season. But "Angels" also opens in New York this week, where seats are already sold-out and the run has been extended. Thursday, Tony Kushner and others join us to talk about the epic work and its place in the American canon.
