With personal anecdotes and reflections drawn from their work together, this brilliant collaboration is a rich, humorous, and fascinating solo show directed by John Malkovich. 

A Celebration of Harold Pinter delivers an evening of Homeric Theatre with an extraordinary actor exploring Pinter's lesser-known poems and prose, devoid of pretension or glittery trappings. It gets to the soul of the man- poet, playwright, husband, political activist, Nobel winner, mortal.

A CELEBRATION OF HAROLD PINTER premiered at the 2011 Edinburgh Fringe Festival as an homage to Pinter, who died in 2008. The production toured through Britain, and was presented in San Francisco and Los Angeles earlier in 2012 with Backstage calling it “mandatory viewing for devotees of the actor and certainly 'the defining dramatist of the 20th century.

Reviews

  • "Julian Sands is on occasion about as naked as an actor can be… when he reads Pinter's poems you feel the playwright's presence. This modest, affecting show embodies the notion of the actor as a transparent vessel through which we see the thoughts and feelings of others."

    --- The New York Times

  • "Sands is engaging and open. It's great to hear him orate Pinter's work in his plummy accent, coaxing out the sly, dark humor that's just below the surface"
