Pinter at the Pinter season tickets are now available! Pinter 1 tickets are only available through 20 October.
The Harold Pinter Season starts with a triple bill of some of Harold Pinter’s most overtly and perhaps dangerously political plays directed by Jamie Lloyd.
The inflammatory One for The Road is some of Pinter’s most intensely terrifying work. Taking place in one room over the course of one day a merciless government official interrogates a dissident and his family, but that’s not the whole story.
The New World Order, Harold Pinter’s shortest play questions the lengths we are willing to go to in the name of freedom and democracy as we are presented with a blind-folded insurgent and two ruthless interrogators.
In Mountain Language Pinter investigates the suppression of ideas and the supposed threat of non-conformity: a group of captives attempt to find a voice when their shared language is banned by the state.
Ashes to Ashes is directed by award-winning actress and longtime Pinter collaborator Lia Williams. This highly charged play brings the dark terror and psychological torment of a woman’s past into her present.
The world premiere of Pinter’s newly-discovered satirical sketch, The Pres and an Officer, an anarchic attack on the Presidency, will be performed by a variety of surprise guest stars across the short run, directed by Jamie Lloyd.
Cast includes: Paapa Essiedu, Kate O’Flynn, Jonjo O’Neill, Anthony Sher, and Maggie Steed.
