If you’re going to finish off a season, finish it off with this cast: Danny Dyer, Martin Freeman, John Heffernan and Gemma Whelan in Pinter Seven, the final set of short plays presented as part of the Pinter At The Pinter season.

Together, they’ll be acting out A Slight Ache – which chronicles the visit of a mysterious figure to a remote country home – and The Dumb Waiter, Harold Pinter’s modern classic about two hit-men awaiting their next job in a derelict building.

Both plays were written in the late 1950s, and are now revived and directed by Jamie Lloyd. And with performances beginning on 31 January, rehearsals are well underway – take a look…

Pinter At The Pinter is a unique event which has played over the past few months, featuring all twenty short plays written by the greatest British playwright of the 20th Century. They have never been performed together in a season of this kind.
