After Pinter 1 and Pinter 2 bid farewell at the **[Harold Pinter Theatre](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/venue/26/harold-pinter-theatre.aspx)** last month, [followed by an announcement](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/news/harold-pinters-betrayal-starring-tom-hiddleston-to-run-at-the-harold-pinter-theatre-next-spring) that **Tom Hiddleston** is set to star in the season finale: the revival of ***[Betrayal](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/play/170/betrayal-tickets.aspx)***, there are now six Pinter plays for you to look forward to! Refer to our new essential guide below on what’s left of the [**Pinter at the Pinter**](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/tickets/pinter-at-the-pinter) and don’t forget that if you **book at least one ticket to one of the first five Pinter plays on this list and opt-in to London Theatre Direct's mailing list during check-out**, you will **get automatic priority access booking to see Tom Hiddleston in *[Betrayal](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/play/170/betrayal-tickets.aspx)*** next year!


**What’s on at the Pinter?** **[Pinter 3: Landscape/A Kind of Alaska/Monologue & other sketches](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/play/3161/pinter-landscape-a-kind-of-alaska-tickets.aspx) Now playing. Closes 8 December 2018.** Directed by Jamie Lloyd, this marvelous double-feature with a special monologue bonus starring Lee Evans is an absolute critical smash hit! *Landscape* follows a woman trapped in a perpetually blissful memory while her husband is begging for her to hear him out. *A Kind of Alaska* sees Deborah awaken from a twenty-nine-year coma with her mind still that of her younger self. **[Purchase Pinter 3 tickets](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/play/3161/pinter-landscape-a-kind-of-alaska-tickets.aspx)**. * * * **[Pinter 4: Moonlight/Night School](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/play/3162/pinter-4-moonlight-night-school-tickets.aspx) Now playing. Closes 8 December 2018.** This double bill explores a family’s emotional rawness in *Moonlight* as they witness their father slowly withering away in a hospital bed. *Night School* follows an East End criminal who returns home from prison in the 60s to find that has room has been completely repurposed by strange woman. **[Purchase Pinter 4 tickets](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/play/3162/pinter-4-moonlight-night-school-tickets.aspx)**. * * * **[Pinter 5: The Room/Victoria Station/Family Voices](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/play/3163/pinter-5-the-room-victoria-station-family-voices-tickets.aspx) Opens 13 December 2018 and runs until 26 January 2019.** Harold Pinter’s signature Pinter pauses and play on words are fully fledged in this triple feature directed by one of the late playwright’s closest colleagues and friends, Patrick Marber. In *Victoria Station* and *Family Voices*, isolated voices attempt to be heard, but are we really capable of being frank about our feelings? **[Purchase Pinter 5 tickets](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/play/3163/pinter-5-the-room-victoria-station-family-voices-tickets.aspx)**. * * * **[Pinter 6: Party Time/Celebration](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/play/3164/pinter-6-party-time-celebration-tickets.aspx) Opens 20 December 2018 and runs until 26 January 2019.** This double-bill is a political commentary on the upper class. In *Party Time,* the narcissism of the ultra-rich is explored against the backdrop of a terrifying uproar when the proletariats come to crash the party. *Celebration* is an unapologetic comedy on the pretentious extravagance of new money rich people, set in a swanky London restaurant. **[Purchase Pinter 6 tickets](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/play/3164/pinter-6-party-time-celebration-tickets.aspx)**. * * * **[Pinter 7: A Slight Ache/The Dumb Waiter](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/play/3165/pinter-7-a-slight-ache-the-dumb-waiter-tickets.aspx) Opens 31 January 2019 and runs until 23 February 2019.** The seventh show of the Pinter season is comprised of two of Pinter’s greatest comedies. In A Slight Ache, a mysterious figure enters Flora and Edward’s home and they become scarred for life. In *The Dumb Waiter,* two hitmen named Gus and Ben await their next assignment. **[Purchase Pinter 7 tickets](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/play/3165/pinter-7-a-slight-ache-the-dumb-waiter-tickets.aspx)**. * * * **[Betrayal with Tom Hiddleston](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/play/170/betrayal-tickets.aspx) Opens 5 March 2019 with a booking period until 1 June 2019.** It was a pleasant surprise when a revival was announced for Pinter’s *Betrayal,* not only because it would be starring Tom Hiddleston but also because it has not been seen in the West End for nearly 8 years.
