Dear Signature,
This play is the best play I have ever seen in my adult life. Thank you, Mr Kushner!

@SamiBerri I'm going and I live in UT. I'm staying only 3 nights, air on Delta is fairly cheap but not sure from CA. Hotel right down the street from the theatre has a double bed for $140 a night, not bad for NYC. I wish I could tour the city but will at least get to see both parts of the play.

Pulitzer Prize, two Tony Awards, two Drama Desk Awards, the Evening Standard Award, two Olivier Award Nominations, the New York Critics Circle Award, the Los Angeles Drama Critics Circle Award and the LAMBDA Liberty Award for Drama. That's what he's babbling about. Let me know when you get all those awards and then you can talk.

@SamiBerri
Even Andrew Sullivan wrote that Tony Kushner's work was strident and interminable. For my own part, I have never seen such self-love on camera. That man is so full of himself I don't know how he walks erect.
