      I’m so glad I discovered this master peice. I first discovered it because I hated the new west side story SO MUCH that I googled who wrote it and watched the Al Pacino version of this, expecting to hate it. But it’s the best writing I’ve ever seen and incredible that it’s so long and so we’ll crafted throughout it all

    I never seen the play so going into this scene out of context was weird and honestly kinda funny, but it all got real very quickly. This feels so much more longer than 4 minutes. The amount of writing and planning along with the acting is just top tier.

      Been loving Andrew Garfield since Boy A and I was one of the skeptics when he was announced to be playing TASM, but he pulled off an amazingly (sorry for the pun) dark version of the superhero. Then on to 99 Homes, Dr. Parnassus, Breathe, Under the Silver Lake, Mainstream, etc. not mentioning his more recent and already more popular ones. This scene is the National Theatre staging of AIA in London. Got a hold of it and am rewatching it from time to time since 2018. If he couldn't get a Best Actor nom for TTB they should at least consider him for Supporting Actor in The Eyes of Tammy Faye.

      Not even just losing his voice, but also being taxing emotionally. Even for actors like Garfield who aren't method where they metaphorically hang up their character at the end of the day. It would definitely still stick with you at the end of the day in some form I'm sure.

    This play saved my sanity during a very, very dark, painful time in my life. Millennium Approaches tears your guts out, mercilessly, and no one with a quarter of a heart leaves the theater without feeling sick, and worthless, and angry, and hurt, and ashamed, and disgusted. A person cannot go any lower. And then comes Part II, Perestroika. And the Angel picks you up off of the garbage heap, and raises you up to see your own worth, and more importantly, the worth of everybody who surrounds you in your life. God Bless You, Tony Kushner, for what you did for me. "You are fabulous creatures, each and every one. And I bless you: More Life. The Great Work Begins.” And it did.

      It is a very important two part play. Maybe the most important play about gay life and the hiv pandemic. If you can't find this excellent production being streamed by the National Theatre there is a very good almost word by word adaptation of the play for television with Meryl Streep, Al Pacino, Emma Thompson directed by Mike Nicholls. The Play is intense but to see it completely is an amazing experience.

    Denise Gough brought a really great approach to Harper. That character can be and has been played, very aloof and in a constant state of spiraling. Yet Denise played her here with a true sense of reality. She made it so the audience can put themselves in her shoes the way that they can for Prior in this scene. This more grounded approach makes it so that when Harper starts her "I wanna get away from here" dialogue at 3:00 you can really see and feel the polarity of the text.
    Andrew is fantastic is also fantastic in this role and commands the stage, but I definitely think Denise holds her own here too.

Have you ever heard a couple arguing in whispers? Also, how messed up is it to judge a play by one scene and one scene alone? Imagine jumping to a random part of a movie, watching 5 minutes of it, then deciding your opinion about the whole movie. It's ludicrous.

      2 couples. Prior (Garfield) has just been diagnosed with AIDS and is quickly deteriorating and his partner Lewis cannot handle it and leaves him. On the other hand, you have Harper (the woman) and his husband Joe who are going through a crisis with Harper being addicted to medications and Joe having an awakening and realizing he is gay and has feelings for his coworker Lewis (Prior's partner). This is the climax of the first act when both couples break down.
