Betrayal

For seven years, Robert’s wife Emma has been having an affair with Jerry, his best friend. But, when it’s over, scene by scene we go back in time to its beginning.  Pinter’s semi-autobiographic masterpiece satirizes ‘swinging’ London’s affluent intelligentsia and explores the meaning of betrayal on many levels, not least the way time itself betrays us all.

From opposing ends of social change, TTC’s Double Treachery Season offers two very different takes on infidelity from two of Britain’s greatest writers - Harold Pinter’s Betrayal (11-17 Sept), followed by Graham Greene’s The End of the Affair (25 Sept–1 Oct).
