One of the most iconic plays in recent memory will be on stage here in Vancouver. In fact, it will be on two stages! This year, Angels In America will be performed by the critically acclaimed company of Studio 58 at Langara College. Next Spring, taking a crack at it will be the Arts Club Theatre.
Now, I've been to productions at both places. Studio 58 is fairly consistent with its calibre of theatre productions that it puts on. Arts Club Theatre though, can be hit or miss. Arts Club Theatre however, may have more budget and therefore may be able to bring the grandiose that this play calls for.
With that said, the production I am most looking forward to out of the two is the one at Studio 58, which starts its run THIS WEEK!!
If you're not familiar with this play, it won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama and deals with the AIDS epidemic in New York City during the 80s. Ground breaking and provocative, we are truly blessed to have the chance to see this live this year!
