We are so excited to bring you something a little different later this year!
Krapp's Last Tape by Samuel Beckett is coming to us for one night only on Saturday 7th November, having toured globally in the last year.
Bringing her unique directorial vision to this production, Academy Award nominee Stockard Channing (Grease, The West Wing, Six Degrees of Separation) explores the intricate layers of Beckett's masterpiece and Krapp's solitary world.
Starring David Westhead (W1A, Strike, Star Wars, Enola Holmes, The Bodyguard), a veteran of The Royal National Theatre and Royal Shakespeare Company, this 50-minute theatrical experience delves into the life of Krapp who, at the age of 69, looks back over his life and tries to make sense of it through listening to tape recordings he made as a younger man, recordings which diarise the daily events of his life.
"Just terrific.....such a wonderful piece of work. Brilliant, outrageous, and a tribute to the vaudeville that exists in Beckett...heart-breaking." - John McAndrew, Royal Shakespeare Company
"Just so special - a fabulous performance...." - Claudia Selby, TV producer and director
So please join us for this unique opportunity to see a highly established West End actor, perform one of Beckett's greatest works.
