Write a paper discussing what is Cultural Critic and essayist Daniel Mendelssohn stated, “Angels wanted, in other words, to be a play not about ‘gays’ or for that matter, about AIDS and the rottenness of America’s handling of the crisis, but about the texture of the American experience itself.

Using evidence from the play, write a paper supporting or refuting this comment.
