A Delicate Balance

In Edward Albee’s Pulitzer Prize-winning drama A Delicate Balance, Agnes and Tobias are a complacent middle-aged couple with a hanger-on of a house guest — Agnes’ alcoholic sister, Claire. But when longtime friends Harry and Edna appear on their doorstep claiming a nameless “fear” has forced them from their home coincides with their four-times divorced daughter Julia’s moving home, their daily balance is shattered. As Agnes and Tobias attempt to regain control, one wonders if that is even still possible.

Directed by Jack Cummings III, this will be the first time A Delicate Balance will be performed off-Broadway, as well as the first production to feature a full cast of Asian-American actors.
