An Oxford Playhouse Production

By Edward Albee

Directed by Mike Tweddle

One evening. Two couples. No place to hide.

Welcome to the small hours at George and Martha’s – the alcohol is flowing, masks are off, and the mind games are just getting started.

Edward Albee’s multi award-winning play Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? is a tense, gripping and darkly funny exploration of truth and illusion and the lies we tell to keep up a façade.

Disillusioned university professor George and his wife Martha invite an unwitting younger couple, Nick and Honey, into their home. It’s not long before things spiral into the very heart of a tempestuous and volatile relationship. What starts as a spur of the moment nightcap turns into psychological show down.

Edward Albee’s masterpiece of raw intensity and searing insight is directed by Oxford Playhouse Artistic Director Mike Tweddle. Don’t miss one of the most explosive nights in modern theatre.

 

Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk
