WHO’S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF?
We are, and deliciously so, when Tracy Letts and Amy Morton, a.k.a. Mr. and Mrs. Steppenwolf, sink their fangs into Edward Albee
12/2–2/13 Nobody tops Albee for eviscerating dialogue. (“If you existed, I’d divorce you.”) And nobody is more equipped to deliver it than Morton and Letts. The power pair bring on the emotional laceration, the lacerating comedy, and the deliciously degenerate parlor game Get the Guests.
Previews 12/2–11; $20–$52. Regular run $20–$75. Steppenwolf, 1650 N Halsted. steppenwolf.org.
