Tony Kushner's amazing follow-up to his award-winning play, Angels in America introduces us to Gus Marcantonio, a retired union longshoreman and lifelong Communist, who feels confused and defeated by the 21st century, and has decided to end his life. He convenes his sister and three adult children (who in turn bring along spouses, ex-spouses and lovers) for a most unusual reunion at the family's Brooklyn brownstone. The explosion of reminiscences and recriminations that follow is truly great theatre. 

The Financial Times calls it "a huge, generous and meaty state-of-the-nation work wrapped in a family drama....it's often witty, often wise and wrestles with where we've come from and where we go next...a humane, impassioned play."
