Synopsis: When they were casting for the first production of Edward Albee's "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" it was to be with an all male cast. Richard Burton as Martha; Henry Fonda as George; Jon Voight as Honey and Warren Beatty as Nick. However, when Albee discovered what was going on he said that it must never be played with an all male cast. The action of this play takes place backstage of an illegal all male production of "Who's Afraid. . ." | ||||
