Larry Kramer could be an asshole. But, he was also a gargantuan figure in AIDS history who could make things happen when it seemed like no one else could. This is the story of the man behind the acclaimed play, The Normal Heart, and his tumultuous relationship with New York City's gay community.

    03:12||Season 1, Ep. 0
    8 episodes. 5 years of research. 1 man's life. A new podcast, coming in June 2023.In a moment of fate in 2017, Dane Stewart is gifted a bundle of love letters and theatrical scripts, written by a queer man named Daryl Allen before AIDS took his life in 1991. Along with the letters, Dane is given a task: tell Daryl's story and give his art the audience it lost when his life was cut short.Part investigation, part documentary, and part love story, Resurrection asks us what we leave behind when we go. Daryl proves that for every person lost to AIDS, there's a life story just waiting to be resurrected.The creation of this podcast was made possible thanks to the financial support of the Conseil des arts de Montréal, le Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec, and the Canada Council for the Arts.
