The primary concern in Pinter's "The Room" is alienation. The atmosphere is menacing, the players all feel at risk and insecure.
Pinter explained the alienation theme in an interview:
Two people in a room. I am dealing a great deal of the time with this image of two people in a room. The curtain goes up on stage and I see it as a very potent question: What is going on between two people in the room? Is someone going to open the door and come in? ---obviously they are scared of what is outside the room. Outside the room there is a world bearing upon them which is frightening. I am sure it is frightening to you and me as well."
PERFORMANCE SCHEDULE:
WEDNESDAY thru SATURDAY @ 7:30 PM
