The article focuses on the play "Angels in America," and its Part I, "Millennium Approaches," and Part II, "Perestroika." In "Angels in America," a two-part, seven-hour workup of the nation's fin-demillennium health, Tony Kushner has written an enormously entertaining play while at the same time treating important matters seriously. Kushner de-ghettoizes the AIDS play, placing the disease, like the destruction of the ozone layer or Americans' flight from mutual responsibility in U.S. President Ronald Reagan's era, at the heart of a national and planetary collapse.
