Edward Albee's

Pulitzer Prize-Winning Drama

"Three Tall Women"

Opens April 23rd at

Palm Beach Dramaworks 

West Palm Beach's only resident professional theatre, Palm Beach Dramaworks, continues its 10th Anniversary season with "Three Tall Women," the Pulitzer Prize-winning drama by Edward Albee, on Friday, April 23rd (8PM) at their intimate downtown theatre (322 Banyan Boulevard). Special priced preview performances are slated for April 21st & 22nd (8PM) and the production will play through June 13th. 

"Three Tall Women" focuses on three women, A, B and C, each being a younger version of A who, now in her nineties, reflects on her youth, marriage, and estrangement from her gay son with a mixture of satisfaction and regret. This work, autobiographical by Albee's own admission, won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1994. 

Resident director J. Barry Lewis will direct the production featuring Beth Dixon, Angie Radosh, Geneva Rae and Chris Marks. The play will feature scenery designed by Michael Amico, costumes designed by Brian O'Keefe and lights designed by Ron Burns. 

Edward Albee's body of work has been recognized for decades as provocative and enlightening.  His plays often examine the human condition, mixing theatrics with sharp dialogue.  His Pulitzer Prize winning works include A Delicate Balance, Seascape, and Three Tall Women. Tony Award-winning plays include Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, and The Goat, or Who Is Sylvia? 

Palm Beach Dramaworks is a non-profit, professional theatre and is a member of the Theatre Communications Group, the South Florida Theatre League, Southeastern Theatre Conference, Florida Professional Theatres Association, Florida Theatre Conference, and the Palm Beach County Cultural Council. 

The performance times are Wednesday through Saturday at 8PM (with select Sunday performances at 7PM) and regular matinees on Saturday and Sunday at 2PM. 

Individual tickets are $44 for evening performances and $42 for matinees. Group rates for 20 or more, and discounted season subscriptions are also available.
