NT : What's On : Productions : A Slight Ache

A Slight Ache

by Harold Pinter

Flora: Have you noticed the
honeysuckle this morning?
Edward: The what?
Flora: The honeysuckle.
Edward: Honeysuckle? Where?

A Slight Ache takes an oblique view of a long-married couple, the irascible Edward and his frustrated wife Flora, when the arrival of a statuesque silent stranger splinters their loveless bourgeois marriage. Simon Russell Beale and Clare Higgins play the couple in this early work by Harold Pinter.

A Slight Ache plays before Never So Good. 

Clare Higgins 

 

A Slight Ache finished on: 13 August 2008
