This emotional point, counterpoint of strayed relationships and attenuated betrayals is a critically acclaimed work by one of modern theater’s giants. The Nobel Prize-winning Pinter passed in 2008. Ryle Smith directs, and he, Kevin Barratt and Laura Marr star in this decided departure for the small dinner theater situated in a church basement. You can choose to do the dinner and show together or take your theater a la carte. The menu offers a choice of beef stroganoff, chicken breast or veggie lasagna.
