Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?
- By Edward Albee
- Directed by Marissa Wolf
JUMP TO: Dates, Run Time, Playbill, & More
George and Martha have invited a young couple — Nick and Honey — over for a nightcap. As the drinks start flowing and skeletons claw their way out of their closets, the couples soon learn that marriage isn’t all fun and games. Hilarious and harrowing, one of the theater’s beloved classics, Edward Albee’s dark comedy is as fresh now as it was at its premiere more than 60 years ago.
Tony Award for Best Play, New York Drama Critics’ Circle Award for Best Play, 1963.

For the 7:30 p.m. performance of Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?
BIPOC Affinity Nights are a mindful curation of an environment meant to center the experience of people who identify as part of the BIPOC community (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) — dedicated to generating a space for BIPOC individuals to engage with the performance in ways that are authentic to them.
All people who self-identify as BIPOC, and their guests, are specifically invited to attend. Though no one will be turned away, it is encouraged that folks outside of the BIPOC community join us on another night.
Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? is recommended for ages 16 and up. The show tackles mature and complex themes, including marital discord and infidelity, and uses strong adult language and outdated cultural attitudes about race and gender.
