The Normal Heart At the Oakland - September 29 - October 6

presents
The Normal Heart

Set in the early 1980s, THE NORMAL HEART unfolds like a real-life political thriller: an unknown disease is killing people with devastating swiftness, and no one seems to be doing anything about it—because its victims are gay. The play follows the struggle of fiery, outspoken activist Ned Weeks as he attempts to break through this wall of silence and refuse to allow doctors, politicians and the press to bury the truth, even as he copes with the loss of loved ones and the homophobia, fear and denial from friends and family. Twenty-five years after it was written, the play remains a powerful and unflinching look at the sexual politics of New York during the AIDS early crisis.
