The Normal Heart, according to CDC, "rocks the audience to the core and shakes the conventional wisdom about the AIDS crisis in the early 1980s. 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. Produced to acclaim in New York, London and Los Angeles, The Normal Heart follows Ned Weeks, a gay activist enraged at the indifference of public officials and the gay community."

Megan Ferentinos produces.

Years after its Off-Broadway debut, The Normal Heart bowed on Broadway in 2011 and took home three Tony Awards, including Best Revival of a Play. Kramer's work was recently adapted for HBO by Ryan Murphy. The television film starred Mark Ruffalo, Jonathan Groff, Matt Bomer, Taylor Kitsch, Jim Parsons, Alfred Molina, Joe Mantello and Julia Roberts.
