Ever since my honors seminar on Beckett & Pinter, I have wanted to see a live performance of one of Harold Pinter’s plays. It was even on my ‘To Do’ list for my year in London, but I never managed to check it off. My intelligent and cultured sister Jillian, maven of all things artsy in Chicago, brought to my attention a few months ago that Betrayal was beginning a run through May. Of course, I am completely unable to handle the process of getting tickets and organizing my free time in such a way as to get tickets, thus the plan lay dormant for so long I figured it just wasn’t going to happen. Thankfully, Jilly is much better at these things than I am. So it looks like I will be going as soon as I complete my finals for this semester. Betrayal isn’t my favorite Pinter play, which is Party Time, but I know it’s going to be a fantastic experience!
