Pulitzer Prize-winner Tony Kushner's provocative new play to bow on Guthrie stage in 2009
TwinCities.com: "Tony Kushner - the provocative, political, Pulitzer Prize-winning writer - has signed on to write a play that will make its world premiere at the Guthrie Theater. 'The Intelligent Homosexual's Guide to Capitalism and Socialism with a Key to the Scriptures' - the working title of the yet-to-be-completed script - is scheduled to open on the Guthrie's McGuire Proscenium Stage in spring 2009."

it always seems unusual to me when a theatre or producing organization sponsers a play to be written with just a guideline of what the theme of the play should address. i understand that this happens quite often, but it just seems a little backwards. i feel that a production should be inspired by a playwrights piece or at least a concept that the playwright already has, or will, develop on their own. i know these are topics that Kunshner can deal with, but i just feel like the organization is using the name to sell tickets with "getting a message across" as a side note.
