Angels in America is an epic play set during the beginnings of the AIDS epidemic in New York. As the characters struggle to define who they are and redefine their beliefs to deal with this horrible affliction, an Angel comes to Prior Walter, a recent victim of AIDS, in a dream and reveals to him that he is to be a prophet for the new Millennium.
