About this listen
Considered “perhaps the most important American play of this century” by The Daily Telegraph, the Tony Award-winning Best Play has arrived on Audible. Based on Howards End by E.M. Forster, The Inheritance takes place in New York City decades after the AIDS epidemic. Eric Glass is a political activist engaged to his writer boyfriend, Toby Darling. When two strangers enter their lives—an older man and a younger one—their futures suddenly become uncertain as they begin to chart divergent paths. In this epic examination of survival, healing, and class divide, three generations of gay men attempt to forge a future for themselves amid a turbulent and changing America.

Beautiful adaptation of this amazing play
This is the most painfully beautiful story of Queer lives told across generations. I saw the production in the West End and Broadway nine times and have been desperate for there to be a film made of this work. I am so grateful for this wonderful audio version - so true to the original play through the voices of these outstanding performers.

The Inheritance
😭😭😭😭😭
Wonderful!
Characters that are so well formed that I forgot they were fictional! I've met these characters before - I've known their many faces.
This story is so raw, so real, so heart wrenching, yet also so beautiful.
Narration is excellent too.

The best play I’ve heard
Six hours wasn’t long enough with these characters and this narrative. A truly emotional, educational and entertaining piece of work.

Heartbreakingly beautiful and brilliant!
As one of my mostly loved plays & most unforgettable theatre experience, “The Inheritance” always takes a soft spot in my heart. I’m so glad this play is now available in audio form! This production is performed by the cast of Geffen Playhouse’s 2022 revival, and it’s brilliant. Thanks for bringing this play back to me!

Captivating and Heartbreaking
This adaptation of The Inheritance is nothing short of extraordinary. The performances are powerful and deeply moving, bringing Matthew Lopez’s stunning script to life in a way that feels intimate and immediate. Without the visuals of the stage, the focus shifts entirely to the words and emotions, and the result is an immersive, unforgettable experience.
The story masterfully weaves themes of love, loss, and legacy while honoring the history of the LGBTQ+ community. It’s as poignant as it is thought-provoking, with moments that will make you laugh, cry, and reflect. If you’re looking for something that will truly move you, this is a must-listen.
