Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? in London at the Trafalgar Studios 2 opened 14 April 2009 and closed 9 May 2009.

A revival of Edward Albee's classic play Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? in London starring Matthew Kelly and Tracey Childs.

Written in 1962, the Tony Award winning play Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? is a brittle, darkly comic look at marriage and relationships. George and Martha have been married 23 years. He teaches at a small New England College run by Martha's father. At one time, George's future as a possible successor to his father in law was bright. But it didn't happen. Now, as Martha says he's just 'a bog' in the history department.

On a particularly bitter night Nick a good-looking young biology professor and his wife Honey arrive for a nightcap and soon become blood sport during a booze-drenched evening with George and Martha.

The couple's scathing verbal assaults, alcohol-fuelled arguments and sado-masochistic mind games represent some of the most savage scenes in modern drama - they need each other as much as they need oxygen to breathe.

This revival production of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? in London is directed by Andrew Hall and the cast features Matthew Kelly as 'George', Tracey Childs as 'Martha', Mark Farrelly as 'Nick' and Louise Kempton as 'Honey'.
