Overview

An adaptation of one of Samuel Beckett’s most powerful plays which is in fact a mime. A man sits in a desert and struggles to reach a flask of water and other objects symbolising relief or escape. The objects remain stubbornly out of reach, but the man doesn’t give up. What is significant about this play is that Beckett captured, without the use of words, the major concerns and motifs of Waiting for Godot and Endgame.
