“We are thrilled and deeply grateful to return to Unity Hall to present this landmark of the American stage,” says Woodshill’s Artistic Director, Allen Guy Wilcox. “Showcasing the work of 20th Century American playwrights in partnership with Unity Hall provides a wonderful counterpoint to our work during the summer, which centers on Shakespeare. Albee’s Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf is an absolutely electrifying and iconic work that has stunned American stages since it debuted in the early 1960s. We are so glad to help welcome in a new spirit of theater-going culture in our area, especially for this kind of gripping, and thought-provoking work.”

Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf opened on Broadway in 1962 with a production that received rave reviews for its raw power and provocative content winning the Tony Award for Best Play. The play’s controversial exploration of a volatile co-dependent marriage and the effects that can come with psychological and emotional warfare sparked a new era in the American theater vernacular. The production ran for nearly two years and was adapted for the screen in 1966 in Mike Nichols’ directorial film debut starring Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, Sandy Dennis and George Segal. The film received 13 Academy Award nominations and won five.
