I find Pinter the most boring playwright ever 🙁 I’ve seen 2 of his plays and tried reading a couple more, but just no, he’s unbearable. Hopefully, you’ll find him more to your liking than I did.

@Natalia ah thank you. It’s always good to know it’s okay not to love something too. X

@Samantha I mean, tastes differ, and there are many people who like Pinter, so there’s a pretty good chance you’ll love him. Also, if you can find it on DVD or on NTLive player, try watching this stage production of No Man’s Land: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6427146/ It ran in London a couple of years ago, starring Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart. I watched it in the theatre and couldn’t get enough of those two genius men. Still didn’t like the play itself, though ?, but the acting was superb.

@Natalia that sounds like a brilliant production thank you. I’ll see if digital theatre has it. X

I’m not a fan either. We read the homecoming in uni last year. Didn’t enjoy it at all ?

My first was The Homecoming. I think No Man’s Land is best.
