Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?

October 22nd - November 12th

Written by Edward Albee
Directed by Jacqueline McElroy-Poquette

Winner of three Tony Awards (including Best Play of 1963) and later turned into a landmark film with Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, playwright Edward Albee's smash drams is set on the campus of a small New England college.

George, an Associate Professor of History and his wife Martha, daughter of the College's president, invite a new professor and his wife home for a nightcap. As the cocktails flow, the young couple find themselves caught in the crossfire of a savage marital war where the combatants attack the self deceptions they forged for their own survival.

"...while "Virginia Woolf" may be the most vicious portrait of a marriage this side of Strindberg, it is also - deeply and truly - a love story."
