Angels in America is a two-part epic, Pulitzer Prize-winning play by Tony Kushner that explores the AIDS crisis, the conservative Reagan administration, religion, and identity in 1980s New York City, following interconnected characters like a drag queen with AIDS (Prior Walter) and a closeted Mormon lawyer (Joe Pitt) with his pill-popping wife (Harper Pitt). The epic work blends realism with surrealism, featuring historical figures like Roy Cohn and a literal angel, and is known for its complex characters, political commentary, and exploration of faith, sexuality, and mortality. Cast and staff is a mix of some of Bend and Portland’s best: Directed by Tyler Andrew Jones, with set design by Alex Meyer, Lights by Abby Jacquin, Sound by Piper Francis, Intimacy coordinator Kristen Mun-Van Noy, Costumer Dora Novak, and more.
