First Look Buffalo Theatre Company (FLB), which exclusively showcases both world and regional premiers, continues their 2023-24 season at the all-new Canterbury Woods Performing Arts Center in Williamsville.

 

"America's Doctor" Anthony Fauci and playwright/ activist Larry Kramer had an unlikely and complicated friendship. In the 90s, both were fighting the AIDS crisis from opposite ends of the political spectrum.

After Kramer's death during COVID, in May of 2020, his spirit visits Fauci one last time. In the privacy of Fauci's home office the duo discuss art, power, progress, and where we go from here. Fauci and Kramer is a heartfelt new play that takes a serious, and sometimes comical, look at this famously complex relationship.

 

The show runs approximately 80 Minutes, with no intermission.

Starring: Steve Jakiel as Fauci and Louis Colaiacovo as Kramer

Directed by: Kate Powers

Produced by: Bob Rusch and Emily Glick

Tickets are $30 general admission and $20 for students and seniors.

ART/WNY Performs LONDON CALLING This Month

When the soul of post-punk vinyl finds the heart of modern stage, a spiritus mundi is born. The one-acts showcase tribute to The Clash entitled “London Calling” transports the condensed emotions found in song and expands them into a wider human narrative found on stage. Not necessarily reinventing the wheel but taking it down a feckin' fun path.
