National Theatre Live: “No Man’s Land”

National Theatre Live presents director Sean Mathias‘ glorious revival of Harold Pinter’s comic classic starring Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart.

One summer’s evening, two ageing writers, Hirst and Spooner, meet in a Hampstead pub and continue their drinking into the night at Hirst’s stately house nearby. As the pair become increasingly inebriated, and their stories increasingly unbelievable, the lively conversation soon turns into a revealing power game, further complicated by the return home of two sinister younger men.

Recorded live from Wyndham’s Theatre, London; screened here in spectacular digital HD.
