The Equity members of Theatre9/12 present Albee's lesser known comedy from 1967 directed by Charles Waxberg. While an unpopular war rages in Viet Nam and race riots explode around the country, Thurgood Marshall becomes the first black appointed to the Supreme Court. The Beatles release Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band and the unsure economy spawns the beginning of acquisitive status known as "keeping up with the Joneses." This is the world of Edward Albee's only comedy, Everything in the Garden. How far will Richard and Jenny go to match the luxurious lifestyle of their country-club neighbors? Theft? Prostitution? Murder? What lengths do people take to maintain a status of living on which they have become dependant?
WHAT: Everything in the Garden, by Edward Albee, directed by Charles Waxberg
