About Face Theatre Presents AIDS on Stage: William Hoffman’s AS IS

March 6, 2017 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

About Face Theatre presents a series of readings of HIV/AIDS focused plays to provide a retrospective look at how theatre artists have addressed the devastating health crisis throughout the decades, including: William Hoffman’s As Is, Harrison David Rivers’ And All The Dead Lie Down, Jeffrey by Paul Rudnick, and In The Continuum by Danai Gurira and Nikkole Salter.

As Is, William Hoffman’s landmark Drama Desk-winning and Tony-nominated play, was among the first to explore how the AIDS pandemic affected the LGBT community.  The play tells the story of a man’s life turned on its head after he is diagnosed with AIDS – who he turns to, who turns away from him, and how the world reacts to the beginning of the crisis. 

Seating is limited, so please make sure to reserve your space by clicking on the website link below!
