“Edward Albee, the leading American playwright of his generation, has been confounding, challenging and stimulating theater audiences for almost half a century.” – The New York Times

 

The uneasy existence of upper-middle-class suburbanites Agnes and Tobias and their permanent houseguest, Agnes' witty alcoholic sister Claire, is disrupted by the sudden appearance of lifelong family friends Harry and Edna, fellow empty nesters with free-floating anxiety, who ask to stay with them to escape an unnamed terror. They soon are followed by Tobias's bitter 36-year-old daughter Julia, who returns home following the collapse of her fourth marriage.  All of these together bring a firestorm of doubt, recrimination and ultimately solace, upsetting the "delicate balance" of Agnes and Tobias' household.
