Don't miss your chance to see Olivier award-winning actor Tom Hiddleston in one of Pinter’s classic dramas.
Betrayal comes to London’s West End once more! Starring Olivier award-winning international superstar Tom Hiddleston, along with Zawe Ashton and Charlie Cox, this last instalment of the Pinter at the Pinter season promises to be the best.
Betrayal is considered one of Harold Pinter’s major dramatic works. This show highlights different betrayals- of a marriage, a lover, of oneself.

Tom Hiddleston made a name for himself on the stage before he became a household name as Loki in Thor, its sequels and The Avengers films as part of Marvel’s Cinematic Universe. Now he returns to London’s West End in a show by one of Britain's most influential playwrights.

Loved it!!!!
It was a fantastic show! I knew nothing about the plot beyond the tag line when I saw it. Though simple, the cast did a wonderful job telling the story in reverse. It was quite captivating! Four stars for value for money only because it was quite expensive. Otherwise, I very much enjoyed the show. It was the first time I had the opportunity to see Tom Hiddleston perform live and he definitely didn’t disappoint!
Excellent production, acting and play. Would highly reccomend
Exceptional production. Insightful direction. Do find the ticket prices push this great art form into the elitist category, which is a shame.
Great play with great actors!
Seats were too far, couldn’t hear the actors voices properly
A MASTERPIECE
Costume wise felt it didn’t really match the story: Tom looked like the man you would have an affair with while Charlie looked too much like the boy next door. Looked like Tom and Charlie should have swapped roles.Decor wise it was really smart to use minimalistic features, focus was absolutely on human emotions.
Spectacular!!! Truly wonderful experience.
The theater is a little jewel, very nice and quite comfortable. The only flaw was thatvthe temperature was very high inside! I loved the play: the performance was - obviously- outstanding. The long pauses between the lines were emotional and created so much empathy. I loved that there was no scenic design and the lighting effects. I hope to enjoy such a good play again!
It was very good played and organized
Excellent production by excellent actors! Went primarily to see Tom Hiddleston who was great. Set design and props are simplistic but work well. Thankful that Tom came out to meet fans at the end.
