ENDGAME by Samuel Beckett

Thursday 10th to Saturday 12th October 2024

8pm

Tickets €16/€14

Endgame, Nobel Prize-winning playwright Samuel Beckett’s favorite play, is a tragicomedy of epic proportions. Written in a macabre intensity of mood, it represents the playwright’s fierce declaration of oblivion in a world populated with its last survivors. The play, about the end of everything, moves inexorably to its own conclusion, with its own humour bursting out of the bounds of Beckett’s dark account of the Earth’s last whimper. Reduced to living in one room in which he sits blind and chair-bound, Hamm’s only escape from his solitary world is the company of his aging, legless parents, and his shuffling servant, Clov, who is at his beck and call, and who, like a dog, comes when whistled for. The only thing left for Hamm is to wait for the inevitable end. (running time: Chook Chook 40 mins, Endgame 1hr 10mins approx).
