Three by Samuel Beckett – Not I, Eh Joe, Rockaby

by Blackbox Productions & McSquared Productions

'Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better' – Samuel Beckett. This production combines live performance and film to explore conversations between three seminal Beckett works: the plays becoming different rooms in the same strange house-interconnected meditations on memory, identity, and the stories we tell ourselves. It moves from the torrent of language in Not I to the haunted confrontation of Eh Joe and the ritualized finality of Rockaby. Things fall apart. And yet we go on.
