Angels in America: Part One [Millennium Approaches] & Part Two [Perestroika] ((NHB Modern Plays))

Available for the first time in one volume, the two parts of Tony Kushner's masterpiece together constitute the finest drama of our time, speaking to us of an entire era of life and death as no other play within memory. Part One of Angels in America, subtitled Millennium Approaches, erupted on to the stage of the National Theatre in January 1992. Part Two, Perestroika, followed in November 1993. Since then Angels in America has become one of the most studied American plays, with over 40,000 copies of both parts sold in the UK alone. It has also been filmed by Mike Nichols, with Al Pacino, Meryl Streep - and Emma Thompson as the eponymous Angel. It was revived in London in 2008 and in New York in 2010. Both parts of Angels in America are available in single volumes published by Nick Hern Books.
