After 50 years in the performing arts, multi-award winning director Joe Hasham OAM takes on the challenge of his lifetime. He will be attempting the impossible – to direct Harold Pinter’s Betrayal in English and Bahasa Malaysia but as two separate shows, on alternate nights, performed by the same cast.
Selepas 50 tahun berkecimpung dalam seni persembahan, Joe Hasham OAM, pengarah yang pernah memenangi pelbagai anugerah ini bakal menyahut satu lagi cabaran baru. Beliau akan mengarahkan teater karya Harold Pinter, Betrayal dalam dua versi iaitu Bahasa Inggeris dan Bahasa Malaysia secara serentak. Teater ini akan dipersembahkan secara berselang seli pada setiap malam oleh pelakon yang sama.
Arguably Harold Pinter’s most celebrated play, Betrayal won
the Olivier Award for Best New Play and New Yorks Critic’s Circle Award.The story revolves around a love triangle between Emma, her husband Robert and his best friend Jerry. One day after a party, Jerry confesses his love for Emma and the two begin an affair that will continue for years.
Betrayal adalah karya agung Harold Pinter, dan telah meraih anugerah Olivier di bawah kategori Teater Baru Terbaik dan New York Critic’s Circle. Ceritanya berkisar tentang cinta tiga segi antara Emma, suaminya Robert dan sahabat baik mereka, Jerry. Kejadian ini berlaku selepas Jerry mengaku cintanya kepada Emma dan mereka mula membuat hubungan sulit yang berlanjutan selama bertahun-tahun.
With a sterling cast Stephanie Van Driesen, Omar Ali, Razif Hashim and Jad Hidhir, this double take on Betrayal is set to be the talk of the town.
Dibintangi pelakon layar perak Stephanie Van Driesen, Omar Ali, Razif Hashim dan Jad Hidhir, sudah pastinya teater Betrayal dua versi ini bakal menjadi perbualan ramai.
