The Great Southern :: Samuel Beckett: Fragments

Samuel Beckett: Fragments
C.I.C.T./Théâtre des Bouffes du Nord
Director Peter Brook

Two of the world’s greatest theatre-makers come together in an exceptional production featuring a stellar international cast.

The ‘fragments’ are four rarely performed plays and a poem by Samuel Beckett – Rough for Theatre I, Rockaby, Act Without Words II, Neither and Come and Go – directed by revered theatrical producer and director Peter Brook. The monologues, duos and trios reflect themes Beckett raises in his best-known plays – the search for truth, the futility of human existence and the opposition of hope and despair.

By arrangement with Arts Projects Australia

Brook’s spare, simple staging is alive to every nuance in these plays … what riches are to be found in these apparently insubstantial minor works
The Daily Telegraph

Boldly reinterpreted and beautifully acted ????
The Times

Brook’s extraordinary mastery of theatre is evident
The Independent

You may never get another chance to see something with this combined pedigree in physical theatre. Don’t miss out
