Exploring the early days of an epidemic, and homophobia and prejudice around infectious disease, The Normal Heart by Larry Kramer pangs with poignant parallels and eerie echoes.
Pulitzer-nominated, The Normal Heart is set in 1980s New York and explores the impact of the AIDS endemic in the early years. A searing drama about public and private indifference to the AIDS plague and one man’s lonely fight to awaken the world to the crisis. Based on Kramer’s real-life experience, writer and activist Ned Weeks attempts to channel his anger at the systems in place while he fights to unite the gay community to talk about their rights to survive.
Visual Arts Collective is a 21+ venue. Valid I.D. required. Doors open 1 hour prior to performance.

An evening of celebration to raise money to support bold, risk-taking theater, with performances highlighting the evolution of our company.
From the founding of Alley Repertory Theater to the moment we won (in collaboration) an indecency lawsuit against the State of Idaho; to exploring each person’s ‘freedom to be’, through the downturn of the pandemic and emerging as a home for fantastic and powerful productions, we’ll tell the story of Alley Rep as you’ve never heard it before. The event includes a silent auction of spectacular experiences and items you won’t want to miss.
The Alley Affair evening will be a special night out with fantastic food, community, stories, songs, and, most importantly – your opportunity to directly support an essential and relevant theatrical company that serves a unique place in the Treasure Valley’s artistic world.
