Zeno's Paradox
December 02, 2003 - Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?

I just finished Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf for my playwriting class. I don't know why, but I enjoy this play much more than I would expect. It's kind of like beating your head against the wall because it feels good. And this play hurts, but it feels great. I think the attraction for me is that this is a thinly veiled duel between two skilled opponents. George and Martha are the duelists and Nick and Honey are the weapons. Feint, counter-feint, hack, and slash. If only I were as clever and biting as George when I found myself in verbal fights...

watch the movie. not exactly the same i think, but completely vicious. and you get to see liz taylor at her absolute best.

and if you like pain, read the iceman cometh and definately read a long day's journey into night (which i had to put down after act iii because it would have killed me otherwise)
