Trahisons

One woman, two men, a story of infidelity. Based on this classic theatrical schema, Harold Pinter brilliantly retraces the seven years of this triangulation of love: from separations to encounters, from confessions to lies. A captivating play, excellently acted, where feelings and unspoken words meet. A true success!

7 years of relationships. 7 years of a hidden relationship between Emma and Jerry, her husband?s best friend. Then, a confession. This is the starting point for Harold Pinter?s play. However, Emma?s confession is not to her husband Robert, but to her lover. She confesses to him that she has told her husband everything. Thus begins a narrative with a backward chronology, where the audience discovers the contradictions of this relationship by tracing it back to its roots. The suspense is no longer based on the outcome, but on the journey.

Buoyed by the particularly jubilant performances of three talented actors, Swann Arlaud (winner of 3 Césars for Petit paysan, Grâce à Dieu and Anatomie d?une chute), Marc Arnaud and Marie Kauffmann, Trahisons reveals the complexity of our relationships with lovers and friends in a veritable investigation into the truth. Who's manipulating? Who is right? Who is the victim?

Love, friendship and betrayal: Pinter delves into the human soul to the point of vertigo.
