The Goodman Theatre will present a limited engagement of the Belarus Free Theatre’s production of Vladimir Shcherban’s Being Harold Pinter, to run February 1-27. Shcherban has also directed the piece.

Being Harold Pinter juxtaposes transcripts from Belarusian political prisoners with excerpts from Harold Pinter’s plays, including The Homecoming, Ashes to Ashes, and Old Times, as well as his other writing, such as his Nobel Prize speech.

The performances at the Goodman follow the company’s run at the Under the Radar Festival and a period of hiding for the group in their homeland.
