Mountain Language & Ashes to Ashes by Harold Pinter

Mountain Language and Ashes to Ashes were presented as a double-bill at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in June 2001. Acclaim for Mountain Language: 'Extraordinarily economical and extraordinarily chilling.' Sunday Telegraph Ashes to Ashes: 'This dark, elegiac play, studded with brutally and swaggeringly funny jokes, is one of Pinter's most haunting works.' Sunday Times 'Ashes to Ashes is an extraordinarily powerful work: elusive, mesmeric, disturbing.' Guardian
