Top-notch in every way. stellar performances by a quartet of superb actors. as vicious, visceral, abusive, devastating, & shocking as it was back in 1962. riveting, intense, wickedly funny. a must see!

See it if you are looking for first-rate drama, intense performances. Albee's Virginia Woolf has lost none of its stunning power & its power to stun!

Don't see it if full-on marital warfare, malignant & cruel, is not your idea of an entertaining evening on the town. Read more

Tragic, Intense, Masterful, Great writing, Great acting

See it if you don’t want to miss actors at the height of their craft performing one of the finest plays ever written.

Don't see it if you’re looking for a pick-me-up. This ain’t it. Despite some funny moments, this is a tragic and depressing story about human decline.

Riveting, Masterful, Absorbing, Great acting

See it if want to see a classic piece of theater beautifully staged and exquisitely acted. Great acting overall but Metcalf is sublime. A must see.

Don't see it if Running time is long, and the play sags a bit in Acts 2 and 3. Though hopefully that'll be ironed out in further previews.

Riveting, Great staging, Masterful, Intense, Great acting

See it if you want to see one of the stage's greatest actresses devour one of the stage's greatest roles with a stellar supporting cast.

Don't see it if the story isn't your speed, including frank sexuality, alcoholism or psychological games.

Thought-provoking, Great writing, Great staging, Great acting, Absorbing

See it if you want to see a brilliant production of a thought provoking and entertaining play

Don't see it if you don't want to be challenged by a play that requires careful attention and requires the audience to keep sorting out fact from fiction.
