“Honey, your lover just called” Hamburg-based “Manusarts” and “Down the Rabbit Hole Theatre” have collaborated to bring you “Sex and Betrayal-Between the Sheets,” an evening of stories and songs about sex, love, and cheating in the 21st century. Sex has always been part of our collective cultural conscience, with numerous songs and books written about it. But what happens when you add betrayal to the mix? These tantalising topics receive an intimate investigation in this surprisingly humorous and sexy cabaret, as we examine the ins and outs of intimacy, the plurality of monogamy, and what it really means to let your heart decide. A story of love and betrayal and an investigation into the roots of an affair, featuring lovers, sexual appetites, internet acquaintances and dangerous liaisons.

Language: Performance is in English

“This HIT production of ‘Old Times’ must rank as one of the sexiest ever adaptations of renowned playwright Harold Pinter’s work….Its unlimited angles gave the audience the sense they were really look into someone’s living room as a voyeur…HIT has once again succeeded in masterfully presenting an absorbing re-interpretation of Pinter’s work.”

“Det engelske sprog er som skabt til Pinters dramatik. Det er en fornøjelse at høre det spillet på engelsk…. Gå på opdagelse i det pinterske univers, og start for eksempel med ”Old Times” i Krudttønden. Det er en stor, livgivende og intens dødelig oplevelse.”
