“A LOVE TRIANGLE WITH SHATTERING CONSEQUENCES”

Prepare to be captivated by Harold Pinter’s Betrayal, directed by Cristabel Sved. Pinter’s famous reverse chronology, examining the anatomy of an affair from end to beginning, scrutinises the corrosive nature of betrayal in its many forms – a play for our times.

​

This intimate production brings to life a sexual triangle of friends and lovers entangled in lies and self-deception. Cristabel Sved’s direction takes a stripped-back approach, placing the focus on the intricate interplay between the characters. With sharp wit and humour skilfully woven into the heartbreak, the talented cast brings a captivating energy to the stage. 

The Old Fitz is the perfect space to experience this play close up, an unflinching encounter not to be missed. At the heart of the production lies Emma’s journey—a powerful struggle for expression and liberation in a male-dominated world. Starring Ella Scott Lynch (Black Snow, Informer 3838), Matthew Hardie (Rake, 44 Sex Acts in 2 Weeks) and Andrew Cutcliffe (Last King of the Cross, SFJ’s The Player Kings).

 

Betrayal is a thrilling and emotional experience that will leave you reflecting on the meaning of ‘truth’ in human relationships, and the lies we tell ourselves.
