Betrayal
987-D Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach, 92075
Cost: $41 - $48
A man has a seven-year affair with a married woman. Her husband, the man's close friend, has affairs as well, and has known about theirs for several years. Harold Pinter's 1978 (comedy) drama uses the familiar triangle, but with a difference: the play unfolds backwards, from a seemingly pleasant reunion back through the break-up, to younger love, and the beginning. But Harold Pinter wrote the play, so can we even take for granted that this is how the events, as it were, fold? With one exception, the North Coast Rep's staging, directed by Frank Corrado, is mostly competent. The exception is Richard Baird's Robert, a performance so detailed it's a hall of mirrors. Worth a try.
