Two miniature comedic masterpieces from the 1960s, The Lover and The Collection, which explore secrets, lies and seduction, are directed by “major Pinter interpreter” (Financial Times), Jamie Lloyd.
Playful and provocative, The Lover features a conventional, suburban couple in unconventional circumstances. The Collection, hailed as one of the outstanding plays of the 20th Century by Laurence Olivier, delves into the intriguing mystery of two London couples linked by sexual desire and a quest for supremacy.
Cast includes David Suchet

The second event of Pinter at the Pinter is a double bill featuring The Lover and The Collection, both of which were written in Pinter’s comedy of menace period. Read all about this dark theatrical genre, complete with a brief handy overview of these two sexually themed plays. The show is set to star David Suchet (Oppenheimer, Peter Pan Goes Wrong, Agatha Christie's Poirot) and John MacMillan (King Lear, Maleficent, The Dark Knight Rises).
