Details

Tony Kushner's turbulent epic about a retired longshoreman who feels that the world has turned its back on everything he has fought for in life.

Gus Marcantonio, a retired longshoreman and former trade union organiser, summons his adult children home to the family's Brooklyn brownstone to discuss his recent decision to commit suicide.

With his trademark mix of soaring intellect, searing emotion, and biting wit, Kushner unfurls an epic tale of revolution, radicalism, family, love, sex, politics, real estate, unions, and debts both unpaid and unpayable.

The Intelligent Homosexual's Guide to Capitalism and Socialism with a Key to the Scriptures was premiered at the Guthrie Theater, Minneapolis, in May 2009. It was premiered Off-Broadway at the Public Theater in 2011.

The play received its London premiere in October 2016 at Hampstead Theatre in a production directed by Michael Boyd.
