Have a little read: ... Examine the idea of games and rituals in Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf is a play about the emptiness that comes with regarding a material lifestyle as a fulfilling one, and the cruelty associated with people who suffer from a lack of more spiritually rewarding pursuits. For example Martha and George's inability to have children, and her corresponding harsh comments to George on the subject of their son, "who could not tolerate the shabby failure his father had become". The games and rituals George and Martha are so obsessed with are in many ways an outlet for raw emotion they cannot vent in more meaningful ways, Martha simply a woman with too much time and George a 'bogged down' History lecturer. However, the games George and Martha play often serve to reinforce the love in their marriage - the ability to simply allow these comments
