“Sparks fly in this thrilling new production.” The Guardian
Logie Award-winner Kat Stewart (Underbelly, Offspring) makes her Sydney Theatre Company debut with wit, authenticity, and unbridled fire in this celebrated production of the twentieth century’s most ferocious comedy of manners.
A leading figure in American theatre and winner of three Pulitzer Prizes, Edward Albee’s most famous play is a wild, brainy and explosive evocation of love, marriage and everything in between.
Following a critically acclaimed and sold-out season at Red Stitch in Melbourne, this production has “pitch perfect” (ArtsHub) direction by Helpmann Award-winner Sarah Goodes (Sunday, Julia), and promises an unforgettable night of theatre.
After a university faculty party, Martha and George (Stewart and her real-life husband David Whiteley), lure an unwitting younger couple, Nick and Honey, into their bitter and frustrated relationship. Their marriage has been defined by the accumulation of small disappointments, and tonight they’re all coming out with a vengeance.
“The wattage emanating from the cast is often electrifying” (The Guardian), as Stewart and Whiteley are joined by the outstanding Emily Goddard and Harvey Zielinski. Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? is a high-wire, high-octane, high-reward masterpiece – “You’ll be scorched by its marital savagery, even from the back row” (The Age).
Approx. duration 3 hr 15 mins (including 2 intervals).
