On the campus of a small New England college, George and Martha invite a new professor and his wife home for a nightcap. As the cocktails flow, the young couple finds themselves caught in the crossfire of a savage marital war where the combatants attack the self-deceptions they forged for their own survival. Ensemble members Tracy Letts and Amy Morton face off as one of theatre's most notoriously dysfunctional couples in Albee's hilarious and harrowing masterpiece.
Edward Albee is a Pulitzer Prize and TonyR Award-winning American playwright whose noted works include A Delicate Balance, Seascape, Three Tall Women and The Goat, or Who Is Sylvia? Pam MacKinnon returns to Steppenwolf, where she has also directed Good Boys and True. A trusted collaborator of Albee's, MacKinnon recently directed his play Occupant at New York's Signature Theatre, having previously directed productions of Peter and Jerry, The Goat, or Who Is Sylvia? and The Play About the Baby.
