Albee/Pinter

Pacific Resident Theatre
703 Venice Blvd. Venice

Harnessing the flair of two iconic playwrights, Pacific Resident Theatre delights in offering a pair of meaty dark comedies beginning September 24. A retrospective of two early one acts, both first produced in 1960, the plays will run in tandem. Tony Award winners Edward Albee and Harold Pinter, who have left indelible marks in world theatre, give voice to the outlandish and amusing behavior of humans.

"...Skilled directors Elina de Santos (THE DUMB WAITER) and Marilyn Fox (FAM AND YAM and THE DUMB WAITER) appear to have a special relationship with these absurdist authors. They understand just the right way to make the unknowable remain unknowable – but still entertaining. The actors are perfectly cast in Albee’s and Pinter’s two early one act plays and do a bang-up job of making confusion seem quite all right. This is a blockbuster combo for Albee/Pinter fans, one that will amply demonstrate their writing chops while raising more questions than hackles."

"...Between the two pieces is a highly entertaining set change, with music reminiscent of "Big Spender." The interlude features go-go dancer Jennifer Knox, who combines slinky dance moves with humor and function; she works with the actors to remake the set from elegant penthouse to drab boardinghouse. Myrna Gawryn is credited with the engaging choreography, William Wilday with the excellent scenic design."
