| "Perestroika" has gone through a series of rewrites. Shortly after the Broadway production, Kushner revised it, such that there are two different editions of the published script with the Broadway artwork. Kushner made further changes for the miniseries, and he incorporated some of those rewrites into his larger rewrite of "Perestroika" for the Signature revival. He also did some small work on "Millenium", but that play has remained largely unchanged. All of these rewrites are in the current published editions, with the TCG publication (which was the first to have this text) marked as "Revised and Complete". The easiest way to tell if you're looking at an older version of "Perestroika" is to see if the Angel appears at the end of the Bolshevik's speech at the top of Act 1 - in the current version, she doesn't make an appearance until Act 2. Meanwhile, am I the only person who isn't hearing the sound properly on these videos? Both on my laptop and my phone, I get a garbled track that is essentially unintelligible. |

| It's weird - I played it on my TV last night, through the Amazon Fire Stick, and it was totally fine. It was great to be reminded of how much George Wolfe went for the comedy in that production - it's almost a Neil Simon play in these clips. It was also interesting to see how the performers had relaxed into their roles by the time they got to "Perestroika"; there's a softness present that they hadn't yet found at the start of the run. |
