Every family has its balance…until something tips.

Edward Albee’s
A DELICATE BALANCE

DIRECTED BY JENNIFER DEAN
BEGINS MAY 14, 2027

Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama

When close friends suddenly arrive at Agnes and Tobias’s home seeking refuge from a mysterious fear, an already on-edge household is pushed further off balance. As drinks flow and tensions rise, Edward Albee’s Pulitzer Prize-winning drama reveals cracks in marriages, family, and friendship in this darkly funny portrait of strained civility.

“Touches on something profound: the secret terror that lurks beneath the bland routines of bourgeois life.”
— The Guardian
