STEPHENVILLE, Texas—The Department of Fine Arts and Theatre at Tarleton will present a production of Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? on April 9-13 at 7:30 each evening in the Clyde H. Wells Fine Arts Center Theatre.

Edward Albee’s masterful dark comedy delves into the heart and soul of a volatile marriage in a searing night of dangerous fun and games. The play stunned audiences and critics when it opened in 1963, and was quickly labeled a masterpiece after winning the Tony Award for “Best Play.”

Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? has been called an “irreplaceable experience … a crucial event in the birth of American theatre” by The Village Voice and “deeply and truly a love story” by the New York Times.

The Theatre at Tarleton’s production is directed by Mark Holtorf and features a cast including students Josh Hensley (George), Meg Steffens (Martha), Scottie Combs (Nick) and Madison Paridis (Honey). The production has been rated PG because of some adult language.

Tickets are $10 for adults, $8 for senior citizens, non-Tarleton students, faculty and staff, and $5 for Tarleton students with a valid ID. The Box Office is open Monday through Friday from 2-6 p.m.
