About Kramer/Fauci
“God, I hated him … As far as I was concerned, he was the central focus of evil in the world.” —Larry Kramer on Anthony Fauci, in The New Yorker (2002)
“He attacked me, he called me a murderer, he called me an incompetent idiot, I mean publicly … It turned out I loved the guy, and I think he loved me back.” —Anthony Fauci on Larry Kramer, PBS (2020)
Internationally acclaimed director Daniel Fish (Oklahoma!) turns his eye to one of the most combustible conversations of the AIDS crisis: the 1993 televised clash between Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s leading AIDS researcher, and playwright-activist Larry Kramer. A confrontation charged with rage, urgency, and unexpected intimacy, it crystallized a turning point in the fight for care, treatment, and recognition. Fish dramatizes their exchange as both history and provocation, a searing reminder of how art, activism, and public health collide on the most human terms. With Tony Award-winner Will Brill (Stereophonic), Thomas Jay Ryan (Henry Fool), Greig Sargeant, and Jenny Seastone Stern.

Based on a C Span appearance in the 90’s it predates Covid & Trump but fits well for the present
It was a dramatic and creative and riveting reenactment of an important public health crisis story that used space and movement and props in such a smart way and it’s such a beautiful captivating theater space. The acting was fantastic and we marinated in it for days.
Insightful. Definitely gained a grasp on the societal impact of AIDS and the dialogue during the epidemic.
