One of the most electrifying plays of the late 20th century, Larry Kramer’s The Normal Heart will finally have its Broadway premiere in a new production directed by Joel Grey.
The play focuses on the early years of the AIDS epidemic in New York and the criminal silence of America’s political and media powers in addressing the issue. Now, a quarter-century after it burst onto the stage and forever changed a generation, the issues it tackles are more relevant than ever.
