Harold Pinter’s The Birthday Party

Stanley, the only lodger in a small boarding house on the English seaside, has a secret. When two mysterious and menacing strangers arrive, everyone’s lives are changed.

Harold Pinter’s The Birthday Party is a classic of British theater. Pinter’s first full-length play, it’s also one of the most performed. Combining realism and absurdism, humor and menace, this play remains as powerful as it did when it was first performed in 1958.

See The Birthday Party at the Kranzberg Arts Center from March 10 to 26.
