Assignment:
What are the main thematic threads in the play? Why would this play be chosen to exemplify Jewish and Gay National Themes in American theater? What are the issues that constantly come up in the discussions of the characters of the play?
Reflect also on the titles of the two parts: Millennium Approaches and Perestroika. Are these meaningful titles for our interpretation of the play? And what about Angels in America? (why angels, and why in America?)
Please write at least 1,000 words on this epic show, focusing on the national themes that make this play still so relevant today.
