Phone: (310) 477-2055
Tickets: $20-$40
Harold Pinter fans can enjoy 72 minutes of quintessential Pinter in the Nobel Prize-winning playwright’s rarely-produced early work. Pinter’s 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? Aug. 26–Oct. 1; Dance On Productions in a visiting production at the Odyssey Theatre, 2055 S. Sepulveda Blvd., West Los Angeles, 90025; $20-$40; (310) 477-2055; OdysseyTheatre.com.
