Read our review of Kramer/Fauci off Broadway, director Daniel Fish's adaptation of an infamous televised conversation between Dr. Anthony Fauci and Larry Kramer. SummaryKramer/Fauci is a staging of the 1993 C-SPAN debate between Anthony Fauci and Larry Kramer over the AIDS crisis and public healthThe show uses the verbatim transcript of the debate but stages it abstractly, including with a cloud of bubbles as a compelling symbol of the AIDS crisisThe show is recommended for those interested in the history of public health and how events like the AIDS crisis speak to modern-day events like the Covid pandemicFor most people, the name Anthony Fauci will likely inspire strong feelings and memories of Covid briefings. Larry Kramer is likewise a household name, remembered as a famed AIDS activist and sometimes controversial figure. Not many, though, know the pair were frenemies, who had a live conversation, including calls from viewers, on C-SPAN in 1993, 13 years into the HIV/AIDS crisis. It was a clash of titans, a fierce and fiery debate, and in Kramer/Fauci, director/adapter Daniel Fish (Oklahoma!) turns it into an equally fascinating piece of documentary theatre.
