NT Live: Edward Albee's WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF?
By Edward Albee. Directed by James Macdonald.
Wednesday, October 18, 2017 at 7:00PM

Josephine Louis Theater
20 Arts Circle Drive
on the Evanston Campus of Northwestern University

Located on the southeast part of the Evanston campus just off Sheridan Road and Campus Drive, the Louis Theater faces the parking structures.

National Theatre Live is the National Theatre's groundbreaking project to broadcast the best of British theatre live (or for US venues, delayed) from the London stage to cinemas and theaters across the UK and around the world.

Sonia Friedman Productions present Imelda Staunton (Gypsy, Vera Drake, the Harry Potter films); Conleth Hill (Game Of Thrones, The Producers); Luke Treadaway (The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, Fortitude, The Hollow Crown) and Imogen Poots (A Long Way Down, Jane Eyre) in James Macdonald’s new production of Edward Albee’s landmark play, broadcast live to cinemas from the Harold Pinter Theatre, London. In the early hours of the morning 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 some after-party drinks. As the alcohol flows and dawn approaches, the young couple are drawn into George and Martha’s toxic games until the evening reaches its climax in a moment of devastating truth-telling.

Screening runs 3 hours, including one intermission.
