In 1972, Harold Pinter wrote a screenplay from Proust’s seven-volume masterpiece Remembrance of Things Past.

Decades later, Pinter and directing partner Di Trevis adapted the never-filmed script for the National Theatre in London. It has never been produced in the US. In celebration of Pinter’s long friendship with the Poetry Center and the centenary of Swann’s Way, we present a staged reading of the play, affording us “the pleasure of providing yet another angle of perception upon a work so elaborate and many-faceted it never fails to give back new light,” wrote John Updike.

The production is being directed by Di Trevis—who worked closely with Pinter—and Ed Sylvanus Iskandar. It features the following actors:

Natasha Andrews
Richard Armitage
Dan Amboyer
Kersti Bryan
Annabel Capper
Peter Clements (Marcel)
Samantha Dakin
Andrew Fallaize
Lara Hillier
Hall Hunsinger
Natalie Turner-Jones
Michael Villastrigo

UPDATE: Before the performance of Pinter/PROUST, there will be a pre-show talk on Harold Pinter featuring the play’s director, Di Trevis, and New York Times critic Alastair Macaulay. This special event, which will take place in Kaufmann Concert Hall from 6:30-7:30 pm, is open to Pinter/PROUST ticket-holders only.

 

 

This event is being underwritten by John E. Greenwood.
