This is your final weekend to see three-time Tony winner Glenn Close star as passive aggressive WASP Agnes in Edward Albee’s Pulitzer Prize-winning family drama A Delicate Balance. That means run, don’t walk to the Golden Theatre to see the revival that we thought was one of the best shows in 2014. Below, BroadwayBox looks back on Close’s Broadway career from her debut in 1974 to A Delicate Balance.
