Twilight of the golds
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.The Golds are a happy family living in New York. The son is gay and is working on a production of The Ring Cycle; the daughter, Suzanne, is pregnant. Her husband claims that his medical research can determine the sexual orientation of their unborn baby. When they discover their baby is going to be gay, the moral dilemma proffered in Jonathan Tolins' new play, The Twilight of the Golds, is set: would you abort a child if you knew it was going to be gay?
The furious debate that ensues is paralleled by Wagner's epic voyage through death and renewal.
Polly James directs this Guy Chapman/Paul Spyker production, and we have a pair of free tickets and a Wagner CD, courtesy of MDC records, on offer for the first 10 entries picked out of the hat.
