Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf

I was really impressed with the acting in the play.
Kathleen Turner, gave the performance of her career. She is wonderful. Bill Irwin, blew me away with an incredible performance.
Woolf, is not easy to watch. It is riveting yet the evil dysfuntion with the characters make it especially difficult.
It was the best production I have seen of Albee.
Every single cast member gave the performance of a lifetime.
Mireille Enos (Honey) was very funny as the thin hipped wife.
If you want to see a play with substance, Woolf will be your ticket.
In addition, you should pick up the Spring edition of Showpeople and read Musto's wonderful interview with Turner.
It is a must read.

and you better hurry up, they've just announced that they are now playing their "final weeks" in the show.

Yeah, I saw that too, Glengarry. Glad I caught it when I did.
But when did New Hampshire become--Such a backward wasteland of seatbelt hating crazies?...I mean, only 40 people actually live there. The others are just visitors who come for the tax-free liquor and three inches of novelty coastline. John Hodgeman on The Daily Show (1-30-07)

I was afraid of that.
Nothing precious, plain to see, don't make a fuss over me. Not loud, not soft, but somewhere inbetween. Say sorry, just let it be the word you mean.

I'm glad you enjoyed the show. Kathleen Turner is great in everything she does.

The whole cast is exceptional.
Honey was hysterical! Especially when she danced.
I have always adored Albee. The Zoo story, is a favorite.

nmartin - I have a feeling it's the old argument that the majority of Broadway tickets are now bought by tourists - and when on vacation, they want to be lightly entertained by song and dance - especially at 100 bucks a pop.

re: Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf

It is true. Most tourists want to see musicals.
I can't blame them for wanting to be entertained.
Even Seth Rudethsky hates plays.
Personally, I love it all. Plays and Musicals.
Sad to hear about the show closing.

Very depressing. Sad that many plays don't succeed on Broadway. Even if they are great plays!

Zoo Story is what put Albee on the map in the first place, and is probably studied in every high school drama class across the country. How is it possibly one of Albee's lesser known shows?

And Corine... "the cast are exceptional"? "Everything I like are closing?" See anything wrong with those sentences?

re: Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf

Truly enjoyed this play. Yes Ms. Enos was exceptional in the role of Honey. As a non native I would like to say that not all tourist want to see musicals. Musicals are a nice diversion, but not a steady diet.

re: Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf

Most everything I like am never even on Broadway to begin with.

Corine. We MUST save Virginia Woolf. The writer, not the show.

Tell all your friends to buy the movie The Hours to learn all about her. I happen to have a very special friend in that movie, his name is Ed, and I hate to see him out of work because Virginia Woolf is closing. How can it close when Nicole Kidman, who plays her, is so HOT right now? With Bewitched coming right on the heels of Stepford Wives?

This is wrong. I am pissed! Write to the producer and tell him he are wrong! Email somebody.
