"Betrayal," one of Pinter's most popular plays, tells the riveting story of a woman's illicit, seven-year relationship with her husband's best friend. The play unfolds backwards in time, from the end of the affair to their first encounter. "Betrayal" is a classic, modern English drama that examines the hopes and dreams that lie beneath our intrigues and disguises.

Harold Pinter, a Nobel Laureate, was one of the most important and influential playwrights of the 20th century.
