Delicate Balance, a play by Edward Albee, was first produced on Broadway at the Martin Beck Theatre on September 12, 1966, where it ran a respectable four months and won the author the first of his three Pulitzer Prizes.  The Alban production will be directed by Patrick Felton and will play on April 26, 27, & 28 as well as May 3, 4, & 5.

The story revolves around the household of an old WASP couple (Agnes and Tobias) and the cohabiting Claire (Agnes' hard-drinking sister), who never passes up an opportunity to drink or to make a good joke at someone's expense (including her own). Their uneasy peace is disrupted first by the unexpected arrival of two old friends (Harry and Edna) -- fellow empty-nesters with free-floating anxiety who ask to stay with them to escape an unnamed terror -- and then by the arrival of their daughter Julia, whose fourth marriage has collapsed.
