WHAT IS IT ABOUT?

On the campus of a small New England college, George and Martha invite a new professor and his wife home for a nightcap.

Ensemble members Tracy Letts and Amy Morton face off as one of theatre's most notoriously dysfunctional couples in Albee's hilarious and harrowing masterpiece.
