It was not quite the "Theater of the Absurd" jolt I had hoped for...in fact, I finished it feeling confused and remembered feeling confused with reading--long ago--many plays of the Ionesco, Beckett, Genet, Pinter variety. (Some I felt like I sorta got...And all, I felt, were reaching for something important). And yet, though this isn't necessarily one of the best, it does--as one reviewer mentioned--work on the reader like a remembered dream with a similar logic. People that are almost recognized; dialogue that circles without illumination, etc. Wish I could see the production going on now (along with Waiting for Godot) starring Ian McKellan, Patrick Stewart and Billy Crudup. As with Pinter's other masterpieces (not all of his plays are), this one is a marvel. The manifest content is almost nil. The latent content, swathed in layer upon layer of irony, is everything. All depends on how the roles (in this case two primary and two secondary) are embodied. Knowing that the two leads were performed by Sir John Gielgud and Sir Ralph Richardson makes for a delightful reading experience, as you can savor in imagination each line reading (just as if one were tasting fine wine), knowing that these two remarkable actors would have extracted and then conveyed the maximum in implication and innuendo. Only the very ending slightly disappoints, being a shade too explicit. And a tad glib? Zeige 5 von 5 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

'The work of our best living playwright in its command of the language and its power to erect a coherent structure in a twilight zone of confusion and dismay.' The Times Do Hirst and Spooner really know each other, or are they performing an elaborate charade? The ambiguity - and the comedy - intensify with the arrival of Briggs and Foster. All four inhabit a no-man's-land between time present and a time remembered, between reality and imagination. No Man's Land was first presented at the National Theatre at the Old Vic, London, in 1975, revived at the Almeida Theatre, London, with Harold Pinter as Hirst and revived by the National Theatre, directed by Harold Pinter, in 2001.
