Review: WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF? with The Fire Weeds
by Tara Bennett - January 13, 2025
Edward Albee’s WHO’S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF? is a raw, relentless, and deeply unsettling theatrical titan. Since its debut in 1962, it has held its place as one of the most harrowing portraits of marital discontent and social decay in American theatre. The play dares its audience to sit through nearly three hours of verbal warfare and emotional manipulation as it unflinchingly examines middle-class disillusionment. And audiences keep coming back for more.
