ABOUT AS IS
William M. Hoffman’s 1985 play is a Drama Desk Award Winner, Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize nominated play.
As Is tells the story of Rich, a promising New York writer, who discovers that he is HIV-positive, just as he is breaking up with his lover Saul, who is a successful photographer. The story of how the men, their circle of friends and family, and the community at large cope (or don’t cope) with AIDS is told with humor, sensitivity, and directness.
In 1985, AIDS was a newly-discovered disease. 2011 marks the 30th year of the AIDS pandemic.
