BETRAYAL

Written by Harold Pinter

Directed by Cristabel Sved

A love triangle with shattering consequences

Prepare to be captivated by Betrayal, a powerful and scrutinising exploration of deception and its haunting and corrosive impacts directed by the talented Cristabel Sved.

This intimate production brings to life a sexual triangle of friends and lovers entangled in lies and secrets, revealing the fragile psychology behind their actions. Cristabel Sved’s visionary direction takes a stripped-back approach, placing the focus on the raw emotions and intricate interplay between characters. With sharp wit and humour skilfully woven into the heartbreak, the talented cast brings a captivating energy to the stage.

The Old Fitz is the perfect space to experience this play in close up, an unflinching encounter not to be missed. At the heart of the production lies Emma’s journey—a powerful struggle for liberation in a male-dominated world. Betrayal is a thrilling and emotional experience that will leave you reflecting on the meaning of ‘truth’ in human relationships, and the lies we tell ourselves.
