-	'''Comedy of menace''' is a term used to describe the plays of [[David Campton]] and [[Harold Pinter]] by drama critic [[Irving Wardle]], borrowed from the subtitle of Campton's play ''[[The Lunatic View: A Comedy of Menace]]'', in reviewing their plays in ''[[Encore (magazine)|Encore]]'' in 1958. "Comedy of menace" and "comedies of menace" caught on and have been used generally in advertisements and in critical accounts, notices, and reviews to describe Pinter's early plays and some of his later work as well.	+
