Having met in a pub, two sixty-something writers, arrive in an old house to continue drinking and talking into the night. All might be well, until the return home of two prickly younger men who bring forth their realities, memories, inclinations, and claims for recognition. Their relationships are exposed, with menace and hilarity, in one of Harold Pinter's most entertaining plays. This exploration of being caught between brute reality and fluid uncertainty is an allegory for our time and will give audiences in the Studio Theatre an intimate and thought-provoking experience.
