"Three Tall Women" marks Albee’s “comeback” as America’s leading playwright in 1994. Three women, all tall, join in the eldest’s bedroom for a funny, combative, and thrilling look at a woman’s journey through men, marriage, and challenging relationship with her son. This is Albee’s most biographical work and it rings with truth and insight into his mother’s life .. in sickness and in health.

"The Lady from Dubuque" is a remarkable mysterious comedy about three couples and a strange woman who suddenly becomes a part of their lives. Witty and bruising, "The Lady from Dubuque" is an Albee play that “deserves to be re-examined and enjoyed” (Mel Gussow in Albee’s biography, A Singular Journey). Financial assistance for "The Lady from Dubuque" has been provided by the Missouri Arts Council, a state agency.

Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? is considered as one of three greatest plays of the 20th Century (along with Death of a Salesman and A Long Day’s Journey Into Night). An evening with Martha and George, Nick and Honey, is an unforgettable one. Games, banter, sex, and brilliantly funny dialogue made this play a hit on Broadway and film. The roles are coveted in the theatre because they are rich, perceptive and just plain fun. Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, George Segal and Sandy Dennis starred in the film. Uta Hagen and Arthur Hill starred in the original Broadway production. Although it won a Tony for Best Play (and best Actor and Actress for Hagen and Hill), Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? was as controversial as it was revolutionary. Several members of the Pulitzer Board resigned when it was not given the coveted Pulitzer Prize. The play remains one of the most engrossing and compelling works of American theatre. It is an experience not to be missed.
