"It isn't the prettiest spectacle...seeing a couple of middle aged types hacking away at each other..."
Too right. Winterfall Theatre is inviting audiences to step through the marital shredder as it resurrects Edward Albee's classic, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? this June and July. When George (the orator of the above quote) and Martha invite Nick and Honey over for an impromptu party, they're expecting a relaxed tipple and maybe some sly bookshelf judgement. Instead, they become embroiled in the carnage of their hosts' marriage, as George and Martha spit, kick and scratch their way through an evening of mutually assured destruction.
Directed by Denis Moore, this production is Winterfall Theatre's first in their new headquarters, Blackbox Theatre in Kew. Expect more than one vital organ to be left on the stage after curtain.
