Western Reserve Playhouse

Announces Auditions for

“Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf” by Edward Albee

Show Dates May 31-June 15, 2019

SYNOPSIS:

George, a professor at a small college, and his wife, Martha, have just
returned home, drunk from a Saturday night party. Martha announces, amidst
general profanity, that she has invited a young couple—an opportunistic new
professor at the college and his shatteringly naïve new bride—to stop by
for a nightcap. When they arrive the charade begins. The drinks flow and
suddenly inhibitions melt. It becomes clear that Martha is determined to
seduce the young professor, and George couldn't care less. But underneath
the edgy banter, which is crossfired between both couples, lurks an
undercurrent of tragedy and despair. George and Martha's inhuman bitterness
toward one another is provoked by the enormous personal sadness that they
have pledged to keep to themselves: a secret that has seemingly been the
foundation for their relationship. In the end, the mystery in which the
distressed George and Martha have taken refuge is exposed, once and for all
revealing the degrading mess they have made of their lives.
