In the second part of Tony Kushner's epic, set in 1980's New York City, a gay man is abandoned by his lover when he contracts the AIDS virus, and a closeted Mormon lawyer's marriage to his pill-popping wife stalls. In the midst of the AIDS crisis and a conservative Reagan administration, New Yorkers grapple with life and death, love and sex, heaven and hell.
It's a once-in-a-generation opportunity to see the conclusion of one of the greatest American plays ever written. Much like Ensemble's recent productions of Eugene O'Neill's The Iceman Cometh, and Jez Butterworth's Jerusalem, Ensemble continues its stature as Cleveland's home for daring and ambitious theatrical productions.
