Logie Award-winner Kat Stewart (Underbelly, Offspring) makes her Sydney Theatre Company debut in this celebrated production of the twentieth century’s most ferocious comedy of manners. A leading figure in American theatre and winner of three Pulitzer Prizes, Edward Albee’s most famous play is a wild, brainy and explosive evocation of love, marriage and everything in between.
After a university faculty party, Martha and George (Stewart and her real-life husband David Whiteley), lure an unwitting younger couple, Nick and Honey (Harvey Zielinski and Emily Goddard), into their bitter and frustrated relationship. Their marriage has been defined by the accumulation of small disappointments, and tonight they’re all coming out with a vengeance.
Following a critically acclaimed and sold-out season at Red Stitch in Melbourne, this production has “pitch perfect” (ArtsHub) direction by Helpmann Award-winner Sarah Goodes (Sunday, Julia), and promises an unforgettable night of theatre.
3hr 15min. Incl. 2 Intervals.
