Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart lead the cast in this glorious revival of Harold Pinter’s comic classic.
One summer evening, two aging writers, Hirst and Spooner, meet in a Hampstead pub and continue their drinking into the night at Hirst’s stately house nearby. As the pair becomes increasingly inebriated, and their stories increasingly unbelievable, the lively conversation soon turns into a revealing power game, further complicated by the return home of two sinister younger men.
Following a hit run on Broadway, No Man’s Land was captured from the West End in London in 2016. “Two of the greatest actors ever born in one of the greatest plays ever written.” (TimeOut)
