Description
An all-star cast headlines an astonishing new production of Edward Albee's "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" that was declared "Flawless. A superlative production," by The Daily Telegraph. This hit was filmed live at London's Harold Pinter Theatre and is presented on screen at the Hammer Theatre in San Jose, which offers an upscale theatre setting with top-of-the-line laser projection and Constellation sound technology. Imelda Staunton (Vera Drake, the Harry Potter films), whose performance was called "One of the greatest feats of acting I have witnessed" by The Independent, takes the stage with Conleth Hill (Game Of Thrones), Luke Treadaway (The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time), and Imogen Poots (A Long Way Down, Jane Eyre) in this must-see revival recorded live at London's Harold Pinter Theatre. In Albee's timeless, searing play set on the campus of an American college, Martha, much to her husband George's displeasure, has invited the new professor and his wife to their home for drinks. The evening turns into a booze-fueled all-nighter of toxic games and devastating truths, full of twists and unexpected turns. Critical praise was unanimous, with reviewers calling it "Exquisite," (Evening Standard) and "Intoxicatingly good" (Financial Times).More Info
