Sixty years after this 1962 play premiered, it remains a compelling, hilarious and harrowing evening at the theater!

The play marks Middlebury resident Peter Kristoph’s MCP directorial debut and features three long-time MCP actors – Sarah Stone, Christopher Ross, and Kevin Commins – as well as an MCP newcomer, Christina Ensalata.

Albee lays bare the verbally violent relationship between a history professor, George, and his wife Martha, the college president’s daughter. A visiting couple, Nick and Honey, get trapped in the crossfire and — as the four consume copious amounts of alcohol into the wee hours of the morning — secrets and truths are both revealed and reviled.
