The Dumb Waiter by Harold Pinter - Potent Pause Theatre

The Dumb Waiter is a brilliant one-act play by British playwright Harold Pinter. A modernist tragicomedy, it tells the story of two assassins while they wait in a basement room for their target to appear. In their apathy, they quarrel about trivial issues and question the hit. Soon their sense of reality begins to falter, and strange events unfold inside the basement. The play’s absurd series of events is characteristic of Pinter’s work, which exposed the irrational features and backward logic of modern stories and dilemmas.

Presented by (potent pause) Productions, who’s relationship to Mr Pinters work continues, is once again proud and chuffed to be performing this great one act play.

Starring - Stephen Papps and Michael Lawrence and directed by Edward Peni.
