A Bright Room Called Day

Please Note: A Bright Room Called Day replaces the previously announced Angels in America.

A Bright Room Called Day is the haunting story of a group of artists struggling to preserve themselves in 1930s Berlin as the Weimar Republic falls to its knees. The play transcends historical drama as we witness the outpourings of a contemporary New York woman who is morally outraged at the United States government of today. The play is, like Angels in America, a genre-defying mixture of literate comedy, serious drama, and political-philosophical meditation.

In his review for The Reader, Anthony Adler said, "It's fun to see a show this engaged. This passionate and ready to talk. Wild, uneven, pugnacious, ragged, committed, smart, dumb, satirical, and utterly serious...Always dramatically and intellectually forceful and, most important, always passionately committed. A Bright Room Called Day is an assertion of the need for commitment."
