Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?
Winner of both the Tony Award and the Drama Critics Circle Award for Best Play in 1963, and the Tony again for Best Revival in 2013, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? is a thought-provoking masterpiece that exposes marital discontent, dysfunction and delusion through a war of verbal attrition between a university professor, his wife, and their unwitting guests.
The New York Times noted that when this "landmark drama first exploded like a stealth bomb on Broadway, [it] establish[ed] Mr. Albee as the most important American playwright of his generation...setting a brave new standard for truth-telling."
