FIGHT BACK is a theatrical experiment.

It’s March 13, 1989 . . .

and you are attending a meeting of ACT UP New York, the passionate group taking direct confrontational action to fight the AIDS crisis.

But here's the thing: There are no actors. FIGHT BACK is not a performance that you sit and watch. You and everyone there are active participants in the meeting.
