A bitter marriage unravels in Edward Albee's darkly humorous play winner of the Tony Award for Best Play.

Twelve times a week, answered actress Uta Hagen when asked how often she d like to play Martha in Who s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? In the same way, audiences and critics alike could not get enough of Edward Albee s masterful play. A dark comedy, it portrays husband and wife George and Martha in a searing night of dangerous fun and games. By the evening s end, a stunning, almost unbearable revelation provides a climax that has shocked audiences for years. With its razor-sharp dialogue and the stripping away of social pretense, Newsweek rightly foresaw Who s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? as a brilliantly original work of art an excoriating theatrical experience, surging with shocks of recognition and dramatic fire [that] will be igniting Broadway for some time to come.
