It’s 2AM and George and Martha are just getting started. The middle-aged married couple, a once-promising historian and his boss’s frustrated daughter, welcome a younger professor and his wife for a nightcap— only to ensnare them in increasingly dangerous rounds of fun and games. An unblinking portrait of two American marriages, Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? is Edward Albee’s explosively comedic and harrowingly profound masterpiece. Starring local favorites Wayne Asbury, Emily Karel, Alex Picard and Bretton Reis this cast is sure to deliver a night you won’t soon forget.  Not Too Loud Productions is proud to produce this American classic in the intimate space of the Hatbox Theatre.  Come experience Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf like never before.
