  3. Betrayal by Harold Pinter


A sharp look into the nature of romantic relationships, Pinter’s Betrayal begins in 1977 when former lovers Jerry and Emma meet after Emma’s marriage to her husband Robert dissolves, then backtracks scene by scene to 1968 when their affair first began. As the years spin backwards, a complex web of secrets about the trio emerges and calls into question the nature of their intimacy -- as friends, as partners, as spouses. A play about love, lust, and time, Betrayal poetically explores the rift between memory and reality. The play won the Drama Critics’ Circle Award for Best Foreign Play and the Olivier Award for Best New Play.

Directed by Mimi McMann

Featuring Anthony Casiano, John Griffin, Meredith Sladek, Tony Verrilli
