Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? with Gillian Anderson and Billy Crudup releases first look photos

Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, starring Gillian Anderson and Billy Crudup, has released production photos.

Albee’s seminal play follows George and Martha as they invite a younger couple, Nick and Honey, back to their home after a faculty party. As the night unfolds and tensions rise, the evening descends into a series of increasingly destructive psychological games, culminating in a devastating confrontation.

Directed in the round by Marianne Elliott, Edward Albee’s play runs until 19 December 2026 at @sohoplace, with a press night tonight, 30 September.
