The Normal Heart

Witness a landmark moment in theater history with "The Normal Heart" by Larry Kramer, a play that reverberates through time with its unflinching portrayal of the early AIDS crisis. Set in the early 1980s, this searing drama delves into the nascent days of the epidemic in New York City, capturing the fear, anger, and heartbreak experienced by the gay community as they faced an epidemic that was being ignored by the government, the medical community, and society at large. The story centers on Ned Weeks, a writer and activist whose relentless fight to raise awareness and demand action parallels today's ongoing battles for public health, LGBTQ+ rights, and social justice. As Ned's impassioned and often confrontational activism puts him at odds with friends, family, and colleagues—including his closeted lover Felix Turner and his more conservative brother Ben—the play explores themes of community, identity, and the struggle for recognition and equality.
