New Releases by Tony Kushner

The Pulitzer Prize-winning author of "Angels in America" presents a major collection of short plays written over the past few yeas.

Everyone knows that Bertolt Brecht was one of the great twentieth-century innovators in theater -- the equivalent in his art of a Picasso or Stravinsky -- but the playwright was also a dazzling writer of stories as well as a lifelong poet. In Collected Stories, which includes the prize-winning "The Monster" and the fragmentary memoir "Life Story of the Boxer Samson-Korner", fans will find the same directness, lack of affectation, and wry humor that characterize his plays. The new edition of Brecht''s Selected Poems includes both Brecht''s best-known poems, many of which later made their way into his plays, as well as some that have never before been published in this country. For his new adaptation of The Goad Person of Setzuan, Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winner Tony Kushner commissioned a literal translation, which he then refined as any translator would, but with the flair of an innate dramatist.

The premier American playwright of this decade speaks out about art, sexuality, and social justice

Considered by many to be the greatest Yiddish drama, ''A dybbuk'' recounts the tale of a wealthy man''s daughter who is possessed by the spirit of her dead beloved.

The first collection of writings from the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Angels in America. Includes Slavs!

In this first collection of writings by Tony Kushner, including his latest play Slavs!, the Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright grapples with the timeless issues of bigotry, war, faith, love, as well as tackling the contemporary topics as AIDS, gay rights and the moral horrors of the Gulf War.

An inspired Christmas gift to the gay community--a gorgeous keepsake rendition of the poignant closing words from Broadway''s Tony Award-winning Angels in America. Royalties will be donated to HIV/AIDS organizations. A free-standing 8-panel full-color card.

The most anticipated new American play of the decade, this brilliant work is an emotional, poetic, political epic in two parts: Millennium Approaches and Perestroika. Spanning the years of the Reagan administration, it weaves the lives of fictional and historical characters into a feverish web of social, political, and sexual revelations.

Contains periodicals, newspaper clippings, programs, and playbills of Angels in America: Perestroika and Angels in America: The Millennium Approaches. Kushner, who grew up in Lake Charles, won the 1993 Pulitzer Prize for drama.
