Performed by Julian Sands.
Directed by John Malkovich.
In 2005, too frail to give a scheduled reading, Nobel laureate Harold Pinter still possessed the force of will to embolden actor Julian Sands (A Room with a View, Impromptu, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo) to appear on his behalf. Pinter coached Sands down to every breath and beat the playwright and poet intended, resulting in a performance that is penetrating, humorous, and heroic in scope. Directed by John Malkovich and premiered at the 2011 Edinburgh Fringe Festival, A Celebration of Harold Pinter channels the writer whose poetry, prose, and observations are as singular and personal as his plays are formidable and engrossing.
