Repertory Philippines opens its 87th season with the Manila premiere of Betrayal, one of the best-known plays by British theater icon and Nobel Prize in Literature Laureate Harold Pinter.
If you’re looking for something new, but quiet yet exciting, offering a new perspective; light, but with deep and vicious undercurrents with surprising resolutions; and, catalytic, but without breaking people or rocking the status quo, Betrayal is a must see.
- Betrayal is a play of places. Follow how relationships unravel in and with public and private spaces, between London and Venice, art galleries, and a flat that is simply not a home. Witness how a change of place shifts the dynamics of friendships.
- Betrayal is emotional restraint. Witness a love triangle without the Filipino drama—devoid of high-octane punchlines, tears, and hysterics, with fury all over the place. Experience how Pinter’s pauses keep characters equally on their feet and the actors continually challenged.
- Betrayal is part of The Bridge Project. Help Filipino theater practitioners and students, through MINT College, learn the craft and compare techniques free from REP’s guest New York/London-based director and London-based actors. Facilitate the sharing of knowledge as you enjoy a different kind of drama.
Directed by New York-based Victor Lirio and featuring London-based Filipino actors James Bradwell, James Cooney, and Vanessa White with Jef Flores and Regina De Vera as covers. 
Catch Betrayal on March March 8–10 and 15–17, 2024, at the Carlos P Romulo Auditorium, RCBC Plaza, Makati.
Tickets available on TicketWorld.
