' Old Times is a joyous, wonderful play that people will talk about as long as we have a theatre.' New York Times
'What am I writing about? Not the weasel under the cocktail cabinet . . . I can sum up none of my plays. I can describe none of them, except to say: that is what happened. This is what they said. That is what they did.' Harold Pinter
