#who's afraid of virginia woolf

[folkhoax]

why is nobody talking about how "who's afraid of little old me?" might strongly be a reference to "who's afraid of virginia woolf?" by edward albee? a play about a couple in trouble? she's giving us poetry with TTPD, she's going deep with human existance and relationships. i firmly believe she's reinventing her lyric self this time.

don't pay attention it's a bit bitter...

This video by Adrien Missika is my metaphor for “being a fan of Paul Gross today” especially outside Canada.

It's an obstacle course!

. access to its projects until February 2025

. The non-broadcast of his King Lear on stratford@home (no I'm not going to be satisfied with those in their catalogue with certainly talented actors but NO)

. the play Hamlet, only accessible for consultation on site in Stratford

. Content not accessible outside of Canada or obsolete links

. Site and fan

. nothing for the 30th anniversary of Due South, nor the production and the rest of the participants (fortunately there was tumblr)

And if there is a Due South reboot, Paul Gross' presence is very uncertain (and without me too guys!).

. Paul Gross's Twitter accounts have been inactive for years, one was closed in February...the other one...he must have lost the password 🤔

. No need for daily or weekly content on Twitter or Instagram. Even less private publications, but at least have access to his work, his creation, his interviews (why is qcbc's only accessible in podcasts while others are on YouTube [easier to understand when you are not a native speaker]), also outside of Canadian territory. 😒

So my feeling of being a fan and trying to share new content.

Voilà , maybe I should start sticking cacti .

[straightplayshowdown]

Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?: The show examines the complexities of the marriage of a middle-aged couple, Martha and George. Late one evening, after a university faculty party, they receive an unwitting younger couple, Nick and Honey, as guests, and draw them into their bitter and frustrated relationship.

Death of a Salesman: The play chronicles the last days of Willy Loman, a man who has spent more than three decades in sales. Biff, his 34-year-old son, is out of work and running out of options. Happy, two years younger, compulsively exaggerates his own accomplishments. Willy’s devoted wife, Linda, supports him unconditionally, but her constant encouragement cannot keep him moored to reality. Willy is literally haunted by the past, and visions of happier days and lost opportunities continually intrude as he struggles to make sense of the present moment.

Propaganda under the cut!

Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?:

the only play ive read that really made me feel anything tbh. the tension all throughout it. the ending!!! the confusion and the sudden realisation.... the reality & illusion thing. Aughhhh

It's like eavesdropping on a couple fighting at a restaurant, but you're in their living room and they also invited over people they met for the first time that night 

watching this feels like you've been invited to a dinner party and the couple hosting start bickering and you're feeling kind of awkward and then they start going straight for each other's metaphorical throats and acting like it's a game. every time you try to speak up or say "oh wow it's late we should be going" they make another excuse or they turn it on you. such chaos, such fun

it's straight people in a very toxic relationship who has out their drama in front of everyone and also it was written by a gay man and it is very funny

Death of a Salesman:

SCATHING critique of American society and economic systems
