  3. "A Slight Ache"


Harold Pinter fans can enjoy 72 minutes of quintessential Pinter in the Nobel Prize-winning playwright's rarely-produced early work. Written in 1958, this tragicomedy of manners is a funny, ominous and unsettling journey into the human psyche. As married couple Flora and Edward breakfast in their garden, a wasp circles menacingly overhead while Edward feels "a slight ache" in his eyes. And who is that derelict match seller hovering just beyond the garden gate? A visiting production at the always comfortable Odyssey Theatre

Seventeen years ago, Susan Priver starred as Flora opposite Henry Olek as Edward with Shelly Kurtz as the match seller in Harold Pinter’s A Slight Ache, a tragicomedy of manners that takes a funny, ominous, and unsettling journey into the human psyche. All three actors will reprise their roles in a visiting production of Pinter’s play, directed by Jack Heller at the Odyssey Theatre in West L.A. from August 26 through October 1. I decided to speak with Susan about her experience with both productions of Pinter’s play.
