“We’re not going away. We won’t die slow, secret deaths anymore,”
cries Prior to all who will listen at the end of the play. “More life!” This declaration of
choosing life, despite all the suffering and ugliness he has encountered in the
world, is the play’s most poignant moment and Kushner’s most stunning accomplishment
with “Angels in America,” considering the time in which it was written.
But it is just one of many moments that shows the immense compassion with which Ensemble Theatre approached this play.

“Perestroika” completes
the “Angels In America” tale. Though overly long, the strong cast, creative
staging, effective projections, and vivid writing make for a challenging but
fulfilling theatrical experience that is well-worth seeing for those who like “thinking”
theater.
