Beckett is first love for intrepid theatre troupe
SAMUEL Beckett’s prose will be performed by the Gare St Lazare Players as part of Let’s Talk About Sam, a series of events celebrating the life and work of Samuel Beckett during St Patrick’s weekend. The End and First Love will be staged at the Cork Opera House on Mar 16, and The Beckett Trilogy on Mar 17.
The shows are directed by Judy Hegarty-Lovett and performed by her husband, Conor Lovett, acclaimed theatrical interpreters of Beckett. The Cork-born couple, based in France, are Ireland’s most travelled theatre company. Since 1997, they have visited 80 cities in 25 countries, staging Beckett’s solo works.
