Synopsis of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?
Winner of the 1963 Tony Award for Best Play, this riveting modern masterpiece is a devastating descent into the private lives and painful secrets of two couples thrown together for an evening. George and Martha, whose marriage is truly a diabolical domestic bond marinated in bile, invite Nick and Honey to their home after a college faculty party. As the booze flows and the fangs are bared, this shockingly witty and disturbingly unforgettable drama suggests that the most treacherous accoutrement in American life is a wedding ring.
