The published book (with a terrific cover) has notes on production history, character and setting, ‘an introduction, apology, a user’s guide’, and an appendix. We learn therein that the script was way behind schedule for the first production (at the Guthrie)and was being finished as the actors were being rehearsed. Yoiks!

I suspect that shortly after millennium approaches, Kushner started to view deadlines as things that go rushing by and he may or may not meet them. Having a reputation for excellence can be intimidating if you're not confident what you've done lives up to your reputation (the last 20 years of perestroika rewrites seem to agree)

Interesting, think I’ll purchase this just to see what the final ending was.
Thanks!
