You can see millions of dollars being printed as you walk along the gallery overlooking the production floor. The free 40-minute experience includes an introductory film and gallery tour of the production process. | |  | |  Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? George and Martha invite Nick and Honey to their home after a faculty party. What awaits their late-night guests is not a welcoming nightcap but tempestuous verbal sparring fueled by alcohol and 20 years of marital dysfunction. Filled with acerbic wit, Albee's play is both wildly funny and heart-wrenching, exposing the fears and secrets of both couples as the lines between reality and illusion blur. Aaron Posner directs and Holly Twyford stars as Martha. See this show at Ford's Theatre from January 21 to February 19. | |  Amending America Featuring more than 50 original documents, this exhibit at the National Archives highlights the story of how Americans have amended, or attempted to amend, the Constitution in order to form "a more perfect union." Learn about some of the 11,000 proposed (but not ratified) amendments including: H.R. 8 - to prohibit any person involved in a duel from holding federal office (1838), H.J. Res. 661 to prohibit drunkenness (1938, five years after the repeal of Prohibition), and Petition for a constitutional amendment to expel members of Congress who are absent for more than 40 percent of roll call votes (1971). The exhibit is on display through September 4, 2017. | |  Friday, January 20 Exhibit - Bingata! Only in Okinawa
