Photo Coverage: First look at Warehouse Theatre's ANGELS IN AMERICA

By: Jerri Shafer Jun. 19, 2016

It's 1985. Reagan is backing a culture of ruthless self-interest. The cold war is ending. The ozone layer is melting. New Yorkers are learning how to survive a plague. It's at this tipping point that the great work begins.

Prior has big news. And his firebrand leftie boyfriend isn't coping with it. Harper is popping pills as fast as she can; her husband is wrestling with truth versus reality. Roy is ravaged by sickness but clinging on to corruption. Told with exuberance, wit, energy and an almost apocalyptic sense of play, Tony Kushner's wild fantasia carries the audience headlong through an astonishing theatrical landscape populated by communists, capitalists, Mormons, rabbis, mothers, homos and ghosts.

Great plays always have something to say to us. This one has the pulse of the urgent present. It is dramatic. It is hilarious. It is melodrama. It is soap opera. It is heroic. It is daring. It is human. It is all of the things. And that's only half of the story.

CAST: Prior Walter - Andrew Trimmer, Louis Ironson - Cody Shope, Joe Pitt - Mike Writtenberry, Harper Pitt - Camille Bullock, Roy Cohn - Brent Alan Burington, Hannah Pitt - Susan Gellman, Belize - Kevin Tate, The Angel - Kaitlin Descutner.

PERFORMANCE DATES: June 17, 18, 24 & 25 @ 8pm, Sunday June 19 @ 7pm, AND Sunday June 26 @ 3pm. VENUE: Columbus Performing Arts Center - Van Fleet Theatre, 549 Franklin Avenue (in Olde Towne East). For tickets or more info visit: http://www.warehousetheatre.org/

Odom’s voice is a mixture of Nat King Cole and Sam Cooke, and he used it to serenade fans with a collection of holiday favorites. He shifted from the classic (such as “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas”), the current (Wham!’s “Last Christmas,”) and the personal (“Snow” and “Heaven & Earth” from his two Christmas albums).
