Harold Pinter’s first play, The Room, features in a triple-bill directed by Pinter’s colleague and friend, Patrick Marber. An all-too-familiar and frighteningly topical brand of English xenophobia runs through this darkly funny and unexpectedly odd play from 1957. In the hilarious Victoria Station and the reflective Family Voices, isolated voices attempt to communicate, but can we ever truly express the depths of our feeling? 

Cast includes Jane Horrocks, Emma Naomi, Nicholas Woodeson.

I never had a particular affinity to Pinter . Read the plays beforehand, and youldn't really make head or tails of it. After the theatre experience, I think I finally can start to like him.

The stars were very good as was the whole cast, I enjoyed The Room and Victoria Station but family voices I found very wordy

It was not pointed out that the seats we had booked required a constant twist in the neck combined with having to look up and this discomfort overshadowed the performance which we could only in fact see half of anyway

Excellent

Christine Shuttleworth

Superb production of three short plays with once again a brilliant cast. Rupert Graves in particular was a revelation, cast against type as an inarticulate van driver The Room. Graves reappeared as a taxi driver in Victoria Station in a hilarious but disturbing dialogue with Colin McFarlane. Once again I wasn't totally happy with the minimal programme, although what did I expect for £1? But why use illegible white type against a pale background, ,and why couldn't the 10 blank squares on the back have been filled by pics of the cast and other individuals?

Superb on every front acting and staging

I thought it was a bad production. Actors we’re mid cast with exception of Rupert graves

Wonderful production of thought provoking plays with amazing actors. Very enjoyable!

The best of the Pinter series that I've seen. 'Victoria Station' was hilarious, and had deeper resonances at the same time. (These distinguished it from a Two Ronnies sketch, with which it's been compared). And 'Family Voices' was funny and disturbing: very good on the young man's would-be cheerfulness and insecurity (excellently acted by Luke Thallon). An interesting theme of parent-child relationships linked the first and last plays. The acting was consistently good throughout all three pieces. Pinter is being rediscovered and refreshed!

I wouldn't call a play, a 'product', so your survey language needs to be more tailored. The theatre is too steep to see from the top. But the L row seats which we had were great. Never understood why there is no middle aisle. The plays were fabulous, though the last one 'Family Voices' dragged a tiny bit.

I liked the set and the actors, but I didn't liked the plays, they seem without any sense to me, especially THE ROOM and VICTORIA STATION

Peter Henderson

The entire series has been a joy! Excellent staging, direction, pairings of shows and completely fantastic performances from EVERYONE! Some plays are better than others of course, i particularly loved the sketches which i had never seen before.
