Almost the Birthday Party

When a resting actor and his retired partner invite complete strangers to join a play reading group in their parlour, things take an unsettling turn. Roused in the dead of night to recall their fateful first stab at act one of Pinter's, The Birthday Party, hilarity and absurdity unfold. But as elusive pages of the script surface and figures from the troubling tableau demand an encore, Kenny and Vern's innocent quest for friendship spirals into a Pinteresque nightmare!

Writer: Paul Kalburgi (In the Tall Grass)
