    A Bright Room Called Day follows a group of artists and activists in 1930s Germany, as they grapple with the rise of fascism around them. Punctuating this narrative are "interruptions" from Zillah: an activist who has moved from the US to Berlin during the Reagan administration, and is studying the rise of the Nazis. Tony Kushner (author of Angels In America, among other plays) combines poetry, fantasy, and historical fiction, to create a piece as compelling as it is experimental.
