PLAY

Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (Steppenwolf Theatre Company, Arena Stage, Washington, D.C., closes Apr. 10). Tracy Letts, the author of August: Osage County, stars in the Steppenwolf Theatre Company's stunningly direct and unadorned production of Edward Albee's best play, backed up by a perfect ensemble cast and directed with precision and simplicity by Pam MacKinnon. I saw it a week too late to cram it into my best-of-the-year list, but you can be it'll be there come 2011 (TT).
