The Hothouse
Philadelphia Premiere By HAROLD PINTER Directed by KATHRYN MacMILLAN September 12 - October 12, 2008
Sinister and scathingly funny, this dark comedy unlocks the secrets of a state-run "rest home" where the staff is even more disturbed than the inmates. An early, prescient play from 2005's Nobel Prize winner, The Hothouse combines the razor-sharp dialogue, playful anarchy, and shocking twists that make Pinter one of the world's greatest living dramatists. Featuring Kristyn Chouiniere, Mike Dees, John Morrison, Paul Nolan, Peter Pryor, and Luigi Sottile.
