Review: WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF? at The Gamm Theatre
Early on in Edward Albee’s ‘Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?’, husband George nonchalantly responds to his wife who has just insulted him with the declarative statement, “That’s not a very nice thing to say, Martha.” That sarcastic albeit loaded moment of seemingly civil interplay between the pair marks the beginning of a veritable conflagration of barbs, jabs, and insults delivered with continuously elevating anger and ferocity that only two people who know each other as well as they do—and love to hate each other as much as they appear to—could ever achieve, and with such audacity and eloquence.

BWW Review: Fantastic A DOLL'S HOUSE PART 2 at The Gamm
One doesn't usually seek out sequels at live theatre, and when Ibsen finished his masterpiece A Doll's House in 1879, one can only assume he thought the interesting part of the story was over. So the pressure on this play to prove why it should even exist is almost like another character watching from the wings. Thankfully, what Lucas Hnath has written is a smart and occasionally hilarious play that justifies its creation, and ties the hands of almost all characters equally. There are plenty of satisfying revelations, and Gamm's excellent cast makes this a show not to be missed.
