First edition of Albeeâs late play. Octavo, original cloth. From the library of the director Alan Schneider with his ownership signature to the front free endpaper. Schneider directed the playâs Broadway premiere at the Morosco Theatre in January 1980, starring Irene Worth, making this the directorâs own copy of the work he carr…ied to the stage that year. Schneider was among the foremost American directors of his generation and the great champion of the postwar stage in the United States: he directed the American premiere of Beckettâs Waiting for Godot in 1956 and remained Beckettâs preferred American director, staged the United States premieres of Pinterâs plays from the 1962 off-Broadway double bill of The Dumb Waiter and The Collection through the Broadway premiere of The Birthday Party in 1967, and won the 1963 Tony Award for Best Direction for the original production of Albeeâs Whoâs Afraid of Virginia Woolf? From the collection of Tony, Grammy, and Emmy Awardâ"winning composer Charles Strouse and his wife, choreographer Barbara Siman. Over his 50-year career, Charles Strouse wrote the music for such iconic musical theater hits as Bye Bye Birdie, Applause, and Annie, as well as the theme song for the classic sitcom All in the Family (âThose Were the Daysâ). His partnership with Martin Charnin on Annie produced one of Broadwayâs most successful scores ever, with âTomorrowâ and other songs from the production becoming enduring American musical standards admired by generations. His reach knew no genre or generation â" from a number-one Billboard hit in 1958 to Jay-Zâs Grammy-winning sampling of âItâs the Hard-Knock Lifeâ four decades later â" and his honors include three Tony Awards and induction into both the Songwriters and Theater Halls of Fame. Near fine in a very good dust jacket. A desirable copy from the library of the playâs original director. The Lady From Dubuque, Edward Albee?s meditation on death, identity and the limits of consolation, premiered on Broadway at the Morosco Theatre in January 1980 with Irene Worth in the title role. Dismissed by many critics in its brief original run, the play has since been substantially reassessed, its London revival starring Maggie Smith confirming its place among the most probing works of Albee?s later career. Albee won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama three times, for A Delicate Balance, Seascape, and Three Tall Women.

Full leather. Condizione: Fine - As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: No Jacket as Issued. Collector's Edition. Fine+/As New condition with no flaws. A handsome dark brown full leather Collector's Edition of Edward Albee's classic work, signed by him on the signature page. The year of publication of this book is unclear: the copyri…ght page indicates the year 1990, the copy of the Certificate of Authenticity (included) indicates Mr. Albee signed it in 2006, and we received it in 2007. Nonetheless a beautiful copy of Albee's masterpiece, with gold gilt cover designs and page edges, moire silk endpapers and bound-in silk bookmark. In fine unread condition opened for this listing and then rewrapped. Also includes the publisher's Note from Easton Press. Easton Press publications are bound for decades of use and durability. The 1962 Broadway play ignited controversy from its inception and earned Albee the prestigious Pulitzer Prize. Critics, though divided, acknowledged its provocative nature, with one lamenting its simultaneous attraction and repulsion, while another, in close proximity to the Pulitzer Prize board, denounced it as "filthy". The narrative, unflinching in its portrayal of an unhappy marriage, unfolds across three acts: "Fun and Games," "Walpurgisnacht" (Night of the Witches), and concludes with "The Exorcism." The subsequent black-and-white film adaptation achieved unprecedented popularity, nearing the million-dollar mark, an extraordinary feat for its time. This success led to its global dissemination, with productions staged in major cities such as Tokyo, Berlin, and Paris. Despite critical acclaim and literary endorsement, the play's exploration of dark themes, notably its perceived "vulgarity" encompassing sex, substance abuse, and profanity, stirred controversy. When Warner Brothers acquired the play rights for half a million dollars in 1964, it ignited debates on American censorship, prompting challenges to prevailing regulatory bodies such as the Production Code Administration and the Legion of Decency. The studio, seeking commercial viability while navigating societal sensibilities, proposed the removal of numerous profanities and anatomical references from the script. However, the finalized film, featuring Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, retained much of the original controversial content, thereby challenging the constraints of its era. Albee, defending his work against accusations of vulgarity and poor taste, elucidated its multi-layered nature, inviting audiences to engage with its complexities beyond surface realism. Within the seemingly mundane domestic setting lies a tapestry of existential themes, including the interplay between masculine and feminine archetypes, the tension between progress and destruction, and the generational conflict symbolized by the characters of Martha, George, Nick, and Honey. Beneath the facade of a dinner party lies an unexpected narrative of horror. The enigmatic title, "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" recurs within the play, inviting myriad interpretations. Some discern allusions to virginity/innocence and predation/exploitation, while others delve into existential inquiries regarding reality versus illusion and the existential fear of mortality. Albee himself traced the title's origin to a Greenwich Village bar, where it appeared as graffiti, symbolizing the fear of confronting life without comforting illusions. Albee's correspondence with Leonard Woolf, husband of Virginia Woolf, reveals a nuanced connection between the play and Woolf's literary exploration of marital discord. Woolf's own commentary on marriage resonates with the themes depicted in Albee's work, further intertwining their narratives. In a letter to Albee, Leonard Woolf refers to Virginia's own "Lappin and Lapinova," a short story where a deeply unhappy couple create an illusory world where they live as rabbits. Very David Lynch. For deeper insights into the intertwined legacies of Albee and Woolf, Natania Rosenfield's "Outsiders Together: Virginia and Leonard Woolf" and William Flanagan's "The Art of Theater.

First edition of Albeeâs Pulitzer Prizeâ"winning drama, a remarkable association copy linking the play to its original Broadway production. Octavo, original black cloth. Association copy, inscribed by the author in the year of publication on the half-title page, "For Alan love, Edward 12.24. 66." The recipient, Alan Schneider di…rected the premiere of A Delicate Balance at the Martin Beck Theatre in September 1966, starring Jessica Tandy and Hume Cronyn. The production extended one of the defining partnerships of the postwar American stage: Schneider had directed the premiere of Whoâs Afraid of Virginia Woolf? four years earlier, winning the Tony Award for his direction, and remained Albeeâs most trusted interpreter. Reviewing the opening night for The New York Times, Walter Kerr observed that âit is precisely hollowness that is most on Mr. Albeeâs mind.â Together with an original pre-production gelatin silver photograph of Albee with the cast, with a few light creases. Very good in a very good dust jacket. An exceptional association copy. One of Edward Albee?s most celebrated works, A Delicate Balance premiered on Broadway in 1966 and won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1967, the first of three he received for his work. The play revolves around wealthy middle-aged couple Agnes and Tobias, who have their complacency shattered when their longtime friends Harry and Edna appear at their doorstep. Claiming an encroaching, nameless ?fear? has forced them from their own home, these neighbors bring a firestorm of doubt, recrimination and ultimately solace, upsetting the ?delicate balance? of Agnes and Tobias?s household. It was the basis for the 1973 film directed by Tony Richardson, starring Katharine Hepburn and Paul Scofield.
