2022 Edward Albee’s A Delicate Balance
About the Show
April 23 – May 15 May 22
Runtime: 2 hours
Intermission: 15 minutes
Agnes and Tobias seem like an average upper-middle-class couple, though their empty-nest lifestyle is strained by their permanent houseguest, Agnes’ alcoholic sister, Claire. The cracks in the facade widen when their “best friends,” Harry and Edna, show up to stay, claiming some unnamed terror lurking in their own home, on the same night their 30-something daughter flees her fourth marriage. Multimedia and other contemporary stylistic elements will push the form of this classic kitchen-sink drama in ways Albee never could have imagined.
