WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Juliette Binoche, Liev Schreiber, and John Slattery star in Harold Pinter's Betrayal. A fascinating trip backward through time examines love and friendship in the context of a three-way relationship. Robert and Jerry were best friends. Robert and Emma were married. Jerry and Emma were lovers. You can probably figure out how the show got its title. David Leveaux directs this production for the Roundabout Theatre Company.
There are pre-show discussion groups prior to Tuesday night performances, open to anyone with a ticket. They are moderated by members of Roundabout's Education staff, led by Margaret Slavante. Groups start at 7pm.
