About Who's Afraid Of Virginia Woolf?
Red Stitch Actors' Theatre, GWB Entertainment and Andrew Henry Presents are proud to announce that the critically acclaimed Red Stitch production of Edward Albee's Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? is coming to the Comedy Theatre for a strictly limited 3-week season from June 29.
Regarded as one of the most explosive and darkly comic plays in the English language, and in most pundits’ Top Ten of the 20th Century, Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? burst back onto the Red Stitch stage in November last year, hailed by the critics as “electrifying”, “outstanding” and “pitch-perfect."
In this jet-black comedy featuring some of the most crackling dialogue and savage one-liners ever written for the stage, Kat Stewart and David Whiteley portray Martha and George, whose marriage is served up to their unwitting guests, played by Emily Goddard and Harvey Zielinski, as a taste of the humiliations and the inevitable compromises to come. This masterful play is an ode to the heartbreak of middle age.
In a unique, industry-leading partnership, and for the first time in Red Stitch's 23 year history, our work will transfer to a commercial mainstage featuring the original Red Stitch ensemble cast, and directed by Sarah Goodes.
Tickets are now on sale for Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? playing for a strictly limited 3-week season at the Comedy Theatre from 29 June.
