Dec 15, 2008 – Forum Theatre will produce Tony Kushner’s epic drama, Angels in America, with Parts 1 & 2 – Millennium Approaches and Perestroika – running in rep. Jeremy Skidmore and Forum Artistic Director Michael Dove and Jeremy Skidmore will direct. The company will produced the “pared-down style of presentation” that Kushner originally intended, according to the press release. “Many people only know the story from the special effects-heavy HBO version,” Dove said. “We want to remind audiences why Angels is so quintessentially theatrical and influential.”
Angels in America will be Forum’s Fall 2009 production at H Street Theatre, Washington, DC
Awesome. Forum is making theatre that matters. Best wishes to Dove and Skidmore on this ambitious project.
