A classic reborn with a Rolls Royce cast! Check out these newly released production images of the acclaimed new West End production of Edward Albee‘s Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, starring Conleth Hill and Imelda Staunton as warring George and Martha, along with Luke Treadaway and Imogen Poots as Nick and Honey, their dinner guests caught in the crossfire.
Multi-Tony and Pulitzer prize-winning playwright Edward Albee’s Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? premiered in 1962. James Macdonald directs this first production of Albee’s landmark play since the playwright’s death last September. The production runs at the West End’s Harold Pinter Theatre until Saturday 27 May 2017.
In the early hours of the morning on the campus of an American college, Martha, much to her husband George’s displeasure, has invited the new professor Nick and his wife Honey to their home for some after-party drinks. As the alcohol flows and dawn approaches, the young couple are drawn into George and Martha’s toxic games until the evening reaches its climax in a moment of devastating truth-telling.
