A Playwright was Born on This Day

October 10th, 2009

Harold Pinter
October 10, 1930
Hackney, East London, England

A blank page is both an exciting and a frightening thing. It’s what you start from. There follow two further periods in the progress of a play: the rehearsal period and the performance. A dramatist will absorb a great many things of value from an active and intense experience in the theatre, throughout these two periods. But finally, he is again left looking at the blank page. In that page is something or nothing. You don’t know until you’ve covered it. And there’s no guarantee that you will know then. But it always remains a chance worth taking.

The Echoing Silence, by Harold Pinter
The Guardian, Wednesday 31 December 2008
