The Albright Theatre is proud to present Edward Albee’s “Who’s
Afraid of Virginia Woolf?”
This brilliantly written, multi-layered play focuses on the
charged, volatile, yet sometimes loving relationship between George —an
associate History professor at the local university—and his wife, Martha—daughter
of the university’s president.
After returning home from a night of drinking at a faculty
party hosted by Martha’s father, George is surprised to find out that Martha has
invited the new biology professor and his naïve wife over for a nightcap. Drinks
flow and the young couple, Nick and Honey, soon get caught up in the turbulent marital
war.

Though the award-winning play tackles serious
themes, it is also viciously funny at times, powered by Albee’s biting
dialogue.
