The article describes the tradition and support of theater in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints but points out that actual Latter-day Saint productions have been lacking. It brings up a play, Angels in America, which contains Latter-day Saint characters but was not written by a Latter-day Saints, and how while the play is not hostile to the Church, the article shows how its lack of understanding of the Church demonstrates a need for more plays written by Latter-day Saints.
