WITH this offering, Jamie Lloyd conclusively proves himself the supremo when it comes to interpreting Harold Pinter’s plays.
Having treated us for six months to a brilliant rendition of more than 20 of the playwright’s short plays and monologues, he now turns to the full-length drama that many regard as Pinter’s masterpiece.
Simple, sparse and easy to follow, while original in form and style, this production’s cast of three splendid actors mark Betrayal out as a jewel.
