The play shows a true-to-life picture of AIDS from the political-public point of view and from the personal aspect. It portrays the political history of dealing with AIDS. How the disease was neglected when it first appeared and for many years after just because it seemed to be killing "only" gay men. In addition to this, the play tells us of a tragic personal story - two lovers trying to cope with the disease. This play is valuable not only for a better understanding of gay life, but more importantly as a condensed reminder of how we reacted to AIDS at its earlier stages, thousands were dying but ways of prevention were not discussed because it was politically incorrect. The author also compares the reaction to AIDS to the reaction to the Holocaust, which I found interesting and sadly true. I must add that this play seemed like a short version to Randy Shilts book, "And the Band Played On", a long but fascinating detailed coverage of AIDS from 1980 to 1988 (written after "The Normal Heart").
This play, easily read in one sitting, was pretty powerful, and I imagine it must have been even more powerful on stage.A lot of people, including me, have their criticisms of Larry Kramer, and one reason for leaving off a star in the rating system here is that the main character, Ned Weeks, is clearly Kramer himself. They play, powerful as it is, seems like a swipe at his critics, and having the doctor character siding with him is clearly a way of Kramer saying "I am right and you are wrong."What is fascinating about the play is how much has changed. It takes place over the course of 1981 to 1984. Many basic facts were not in place yet. Indeed, the name AIDS never shows up in the text of the play. It is just called either "the plague" or "it." Even the "condom code" had not become ubiquitous yet.What is also fascinating is the look at the Closet, how many gay enjoyed the benefits of gay sexual liberation, but were still closeted at the office and with their parents and friends. In the age of AIDS, coming out often took on the shadow of death with it, as men made double revelations to their parents, often associating gayness with death and disease. Also interesting is the arguments the gay men are having about sex and politics, denial and reality.Like I said, it's easily read in one sitting. A lot has happened since 1984, but it's important to bear in mind that in 1984, the President, Mayor Koch, and the New York Times barely admitted there was an AIDS crisis happening at all.There are a variety of things I don't like about Larry Kramer, but I do like it that someone out there is angry, and willing to keep shouting.
