Three Plays by Edward Albee features three acclaimed one-act plays from the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award–winning playwright’s early years.
With the initial productions of The Death of Bessie Smith, The Sandbox, and The American Dream, Edward Albee consolidated his reputation as a brilliant new talent of the New York theater scene. These three plays tackle major themes such as race relations, American family life, and the essence of theater itself—each of which still continue to resonate.
Representing the bold and exciting periods in the then young career of Albee—widely considered one of America’s most popular and imaginative playwrights—this edition is a must-have for theater lovers.
