You of course have to know Albee's "Virginia Woolf" (and who among theatrical folk doesn't) to get the premise of this farcical little play, which turns the original on its end by telling us that George and Martha had a kid after all. And this kid might as well be the wholesome, cheerful young man from Albee's "Sandbox" or "American Dream." Having established his premise, Paul Donnelly throws caution to the winds as he piles twist upon twist in truly Albeeian, absurdist fashion. This piece should be great fun for audiences to see, and for actors to act.
