Time to kill the imaginary child

Tonight I saw an outstanding revival of Albee’s Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf on Broadway.
This line struck me:

“…this was during the Great Experiment, or Prohibition, as it is more frequently called … a fine time for the crooks and the cops.”

Ain’t that the truth.

[Note: The title of this post is a reference to the killing off (by the characters in the play) of a possibly destructive delusion that they thought helped them get by…]
