The oral history of 'Angels in America', as told by the artists who created it and the audiences forever changed by it - a moving account of the AIDS era, essential queer history, and an exuberant backstage tale. When Tony Kushner's 'Angels in America' hit Broadway in 1993, it won the Pulitzer Prize, swept the Tonys, launched a score of major careers, and changed the way gay lives were represented in popular culture. Mike Nichols's 2003 HBO adaptation starring Meryl Streep, Al Pacino, and Mary-Louise Parker was itself a tour de force, winning Golden Globes and eleven Emmys, and introducing the play to an even wider public. This generation-defining classic continues to shock, move, and inspire viewers worldwide.
