Harold Pinter - Betrayal & Old Times

Inspired by his own affair, Betrayal is Pinter’s masterpiece of lies and deception, highlighting how we betray ourselves and each other in our desire to be seen. A story told in reverse, Betrayal is quite simply one of the landmark plays of the 20th century and not to be missed.

Played in rep, Old Times is perhaps Pinter’s most ambiguous play. Described by the New York Times as something that ‘people will talk about as long as we have theatre,’ Old Times examines our desire to reclaim the past, as a comfortably married couple are visited by a friend from long ago. Or is she? Nothing is certain and facts are disputed in this remarkable work of forgotten passion and desire for change.
