This project - being a faithful adaptation of Edward Albee's ground-breaking theatre-production "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf" - aims to bring the drama and barbarity found in the play, to the screen.


Set in the early 1960s on the East Coast of the USA, college-teacher George and his wife Martha invite round a younger-pair (Nick & Honey) for a supposed "after-party". Though, as the night progresses, the bitter and venomous nature of the old-married-couple exposes all sorts of ugliness found within the four. 

A truly multifaceted story, the film sheds to light the complexities of marriage via all taking place over the course of one exhilarating yet exhausting evening.


From the creation of the set to the costumes (and everything in-between) the film is to be made by students studying at Bristol-film school "Screenology".

This Cahootify Opportunity is for the role of "Nick" in the 2021 film-adaptation of Edward Albee's renowned theatre-production - "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf".

Nick is a young-man who is married to Honey.
Desperate to prove himself in any way shape or form, he is a spiteful yet impressive man. Keen to take the world by storm, he would readily disregard any shred of self-respect in pursuit of his goal.
As a man with an unmistakably ambiguous moral-compass, we bare-witness to this "New-Age", ambitious young-adult as he wretchedly fights to maintain his front of bravado and brilliance.
