Samuel Beckett, best known for his plays Waiting for Godot and Endgame, was a leader in the Theatre of the Absurd movement. His works remain the best-known and most-performed absurdist plays, which are known for their tragicomic tone and the notion that life has no meaning. In this series of short plays written in the mid-20th century, Beckett plays with language, settings, repetition, and relationships to find the ridiculous underpinnings of life, death, and everything else. Featured plays: Act Without Words II Play Come and Go Footfalls Rockaby Catastrophe What Where Quad Written by Samuel Beckett Directed by Malcolm Tulip
