Angels in America Offers Heavenly Experience
The Tartan Online: Something’s coming — something big.
That thought nags at the back of the audience members’ minds from the moment they sit down and gaze at the vastly empty set for Angels in America Part One: Millennium Approaches, and it slowly edges its way to the forefront until the final scene, when the world comes crashing down.

The comments on the leads of this show were spot on. I agree with all of them and think that Trevor and Emily were definitely the stand out performers in the piece. However, I wish that they had mentioned the beautiful set design by Britton Mauk. I was blown away by this production all around. I simply wish papers and publicity would give more credit to the designers who were outstanding on this production.
I agree strongly with Nathan, i dont think the designers of productions ever get enough credit. generally speaking most of the praise for shows generally goes to the director and the actors, which doesn't really seem fair. not that they don't deserve credit i just feel like a large part of this show, and most shows are so good because the effect and reason as to why its so good has to do with a lot of the people who are hardly ever mentioned. and maybe thats due to the audiences lack of proper knowledge of how theater properly works.
