Andrews Warrick returns to stage with Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? | Theatre

Director and actor Andrus Vaarik found the play to be one of the top five plays of the last century. Alo Kõrve, who plays the role of George in the new version, never dreamed that he would play such a role. “I realized that this is very, very strong material,” Kõrve said.

Varrick appeared in the show for 11 years and a total of 319 times. “I’m very happy because Kalusu once said that the main task of the director is to keep the actors interested in the material until the premiere, and when A Luo said that, at least the main task is accomplished,” the director said with a smile.

Warrick said he didn’t know and didn’t think he would become a director. “I just directed in the absence of better directors, because we have so few directors in Estonia. I felt especially competent this time because I’ve been doing it for so long and there was still something to discover until the last play.” Warrick.

“If I end up directing again, I probably could, out of lack of character or greed, master the material in the same way, but I don’t know how to work alone at home and prepare myself to feel it from the inside out like I am feeling it right now,” Warrick said.

According to Korff, he said yes before he read the material. When he later started reading, he realized he had said yes too quickly. “It took quite a while to read there,” Korff admitted.

Although the play takes place in one night and it’s as if nothing happened, according to Korvey, the nighttime and revealing conversations are also part of people’s lives. “When people are talking and thinking on stage – action is the chicest and most elegant, because in the case of summer production, you can really chase each other with sickles, and Estonians also pay money for it, but what a good spirit action is readable, and then I can think about it, understand what this person wants, and ultimately empathize with him,” Warrick discovered.
