THE GOAT OR, WHO IS SYLVIA? Extended to May 3rd
Event WebsiteAbout
Martin has it all – a successful architecture career, loving wife, and son – but he also has a salacious secret. Martin is secretly in love… with a goat. Edward Albee’s Tony Award-winning tragedy edges the line of morality while exploring the limits of love and what is considered taboo in a modern society.
SF/Arts Curator Insight
From the unpredictable imagination of Edward Albee comes this 2002 Tony Award winner about a man cheating on his wife--with a goat. Best known for the drama “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?,” Albee himself was unafraid to tackle the darkest possible scenarios. This play is more than a provocative reconsideration of bestiality; it’s an exploration of the nature of love and it challenges our preconceptions about morality itself.
