Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?
For our last ushering gig of the summer, we volunteered for the amazing production of the very serious, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?
Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? is a 1962 play by Edward Albee. It examines the breakdown of the marriage of a middle-aged couple, Martha and George. Late one evening, after a university faculty party, they receive an unwitting younger couple, Nick and Honey, as guests, and draw them into their bitter and frustrated relationship. The play is in three acts, normally taking a little less than three hours to perform, with two 10-minute intermissions.While the subject was tough to watch, the actors were extremely talented and the play was so well written. In fact, the dialogue in the first act of the play has been hailed by some critics as some of the greatest in all of the American theatre. We both hesitated to see this production, but we were so glad we did. Bravo!
And the spectacular sunset was an added bonus.
