Remembrance of Things Past is the 2000 collaborative stage adaptation by Harold Pinter and director Di Trevis of Harold Pinter's as-yet unproduced The Proust Screenplay (1977), a screen adaptation of À la recherche du temps perdu, the 1913–1927 seven-volume novel by Marcel Proust.
In November 2000, the play premiered at the Royal National Theatre, in London, under the direction of Trevis,[1] who also produced and directed it with a student cast at the Victorian College of the Arts Drama School, in Melbourne, Australia, in October 2002.[2] There also were foreign-language productions of the play in Denmark and Slovenia in 2004.[3]
