Beckett x3 2012

Gorey Little Theatre, Gorey

Samuel Beckett was an avant-garde writer, dramatist and poet.  Winner of the 1969 Nobel Prize in Literature, he is widely regarded as one of the most influential writers of the 20th century

Three short plays in which Samuel Beckett confronts human destiny and how we can deal with it :

Rough for Theatre 2 - Two observers who may or may not be officials discuss a man contemplating suicide

That Time – An Irish labourer after years in Britain looks back on his earlier life and his disappointing career, before he dies

Rockaby – An old woman sick of life rocks herself into the next life
