#038 - CELEBRATION

Tonight on 'Working With Pinter' we will be focussing entirely on Pinter's last play CELEBRATION, his funniest and also perhaps his most accessible script in many years. Set in a West End restaurant, arms dealers, bankers and a bizarre time-travelling waiter exchange surreal tales over the Osso Bucco and Valpollicella. Not only will we read the script, we will also watch the film of Harold Pinter's own premiere production, with Lindsay Duncan, Keith Allen, Indira Varma and a very cheeky young newcomer called Danny Dyer.

Our popular weekly pay-what-you-can WORKING WITH PINTER workshops are hosted on Zoom by West End director Harry Burton, close associate of Harold Pinter, and director of Channel 4’s WORKING WITH PINTER (on registration you will receive a link to this film). Harry’s guests on the Pinter Zoom have included Henry Woolf (Pinter’s oldest friend), actor Douglas Hodge, actress Eve Best, DAREDEVIL star Charlie Cox (who co-starred with Tom Hiddleston in BETRAYAL), academic & author George Cole, and dramatist Kerry Lee Crabbe.

A “Pay what you can” event.

Every Friday, 7 - 9:30pm {UK}. Live on Zoom.
