Woolf's 1931 novel The Waves plays with some of the techniques that Eliot developed (with the important editing of Ezra Pound) in The Waste Land (1922), published in one of its versions by the Hogarth Press, run by Virginia and Leonard Woolf. Virginia Woolf actually hand-set the type of The Waste Land. See Molly Hite's introduction to The Waves (Harcourt 2006, Mark Hussey series editor)

What is the name of the play with a similar theme to Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf ie a disintegrating excruciating marriage?
You may be thinking of 'A Streetcar named Desire' by Tennessee Williams, which I have been recommended to compare 'Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?' with in my A Level English Literature course. The marriage is similarly incredibly volatile; Stella and Stanley within the play often change between sentimental affection and violence, and these are often interlinked and confused with each other. As well as this, both marriages in the two plays consist of adultery. It may be regarded as 'excruciating' to the audience of the play due to Stella's delusional view towards her betraying husband. I hope this helps answer your question.
