The Caretaker – first performed in 1960 – was Harold Pinter’s first big hit. Fifty years on, it remains as mysterious and compelling as ever.
In this new production, Hollywood star and two-time Tony Award winner Jonathan Pryce joins the pantheon of great actors from Donald Pleasance to Michael Gambon who have played the part of the mysterious drifter, Davies.
