Angel Cruz makes one mistake and finds himself in the heart of darkness: the most desolate wing of Riker’s Island prison. There he navigates a tortuous and brutally funny path through tormentors and would be guardian angels to achieve hard won redemption and spiritual freedom. Hailed by the New York Times as “The best playwright in America under 40” Stephen Adly Guirgis has electrified New York and London audiences alike with this visceral theater experience.
