In the Upstairs Theatre
Thu. January 25, 2007 — Sun. May 27, 2007

Pinter's most personal and powerful play is illuminated by the honesty and passion of the Steppenwolf ensemble in the intimate Upstairs Theatre.

Overview

Over the course of seven years, Emma and Jerry hide a love affair from Robert, Emma's husband and Jerry's best friend. The classic play of marriage and infidelity from the 2005 recipient of the Nobel Prize for Literature reveals all of the doubts, worries, jealousies and ecstasies of relationships.

Stay after the performance for a post show discussion with Steppenwolf artists, sponsored by AT&T.

National City is the Major Corporate Sponsor of Betrayal.

Running Time: 1 hour 15 minutes with no intermissions
