Theatre review: The Lover and The Dumb Waiter, Ensemble Theatre

A double dose of classic Pinter plays.

British countertenor James Laing as the Refugee in State Opera South Australia's 2025 production, 'Flight'.

The blue-lit panelled wall behind him evokes the bars of a prison cell, while four curving beams of light projected against the walls increase the impression of this man being trapped or avoiding the spotlight.
