The Normal Heart TalkOut Series June 21, 2011

Immediately following select performances of The Normal Heart, distinguished members of the community will lead a TalkOut, part of a series of talkbacks that underscore the themes and historical context of the play.

On June 21st, The Normal Heart welcomes Joseph P. Benincasa, President and CEO and Barbara Davis, COO, The Actors Fund

The story of a city in denial, THE NORMAL HEART unfolds like a real-life political thriller—as a tight-knit group of friends refuses to let doctors, politicians and the press bury the truth of an unspoken epidemic behind a wall of silence. A quarter-century after it was written, this outrageous, unflinching, and totally unforgettable look at the sexual politics of New York during the AIDS crisis remains one of the theatre’s most powerful evenings ever. It has received five Tony nominations, including Best Revival of a Play and Best Director for Joel Grey and George C. Wolfe.
