Betrayal @ Hong Kong Repertory Theatre 2026-27 Season

Highlights

Presented by the Hong Kong Repertory Theatre, Nobel Laureate Harold Pinter's classic masterpiece 'Betrayal' comes to the stage in March 2027. Using a brilliant reverse-chronological structure, the play unfolds to reveal the complexities of an intricate human relationship. Directed by Yau Ting-fai, the production invites the audience to explore the nuance of 'Pinteresque silence,' delving into the tensions between love, betrayal, lies, and concealment.

Program

The story revolves around Emma, Jerry, and the secrets hidden within their shared emotional entanglements. This is not just a tale of extramarital betrayal, but a deep exploration of human psychology—how people second-guess, disguise the truth, and struggle with the unspoken. Since its 1978 premiere, this award-winning play (Laurence Olivier Award) has become a global classic. This Cantonese adaptation, translated by Yu Hon-ting, reinterprets the emotional friction, presenting a 'Rashomon' of marriage that is as intoxicating as it is tragic.
