Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?

Winner of five Tony Awards®, including Best Play, Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? is considered one of the masterworks of American drama, with dazzling language and unforgettable characters. George, a professor at a small college, and his wife, Martha, have just returned home, drunk from a Saturday night party. Martha, much to her husband George’s displeasure, has invited the opportunistic new professor and his wife to their home for a night-cap. Over the course of the evening, George and Martha use their guests as pawns in increasingly cruel mind games, leading to a devastating revelation.
