BTC season opens with 'Everything in the Garden'

Oct. 08, 2009

Performances run though Oct. 18

WALTHAM, Mass. — The Brandeis Theater Company season opened Oct. 8 with a lesser-known 1967 Edward Albee play that puts the “green” in greenhouse. “Everything in the Garden” focuses on Jenny and Richard, a suburban couple who has everything in their marriage but enough money. When Mrs. Toothe makes a titillating proposal, we see just how far the pair will go to reach their financial dreams. A three-time recipient of the Pulitzer Prize, Albee is best known as the author of “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf,” which also dramatizes suburban angst with biting humor. Eric Hill, the Barbara '54 and Malcolm L. Sherman Professor of Theater Arts, directs.

“Everything in the Garden” runs through Sunday, Oct. 18.
