A.C.T. Performs Endgame and Play - A Beckett Double Bill

Full Price:
$25.00 - $79.00
Our Price:
$15.00 - $47.40

American Conservatory Theater performs a double bill of two outstanding plays from master playwright Samuel Beckett. Endgame and Play are a pair of absurd dark comedies that conjure a fiercely funny and emotionally gripping world. In Endgame, Tony Award winner Bill Irwin takes on the role of Hamm, who is trapped between life and death with his young servant, Clov. Together they engage in a chess match of wits in this vivid exploration of the end of life. This iconic work will be presented together with Beckett's rarely performed one-act Play, a brief comic tour de force about marriage and infidelity, featuring members of A.C.T.'s core acting company.

It was a terrific play.

A suggestion: Is it possible for subscriber to actually see the seats being purchased? There is a program in NY that allows that.

ACT again demonstrates how to produce the classic American theater productions in a grand, elegant with talented casts, brilliant direction and giving visual excitement unsurpassed in the US.
The ensemble worked smoothly in this challenging production. They were so loyal to the meaning of the characters, dealing with the inter family vicious intrique.
The enormous and very sophisticated set along with the elegant costumes added to this evening of fine theater. San Francisico is honored to have ACT.

Description

Playwright, activist, lover, blacklisted screenwriter—Lillian Hellman, with her rabble-rousing life and work, continues to exert a captivating hold on American culture. The Little Foxes reveals Hellman’s unrivaled ability to create some of the meatiest roles in the modern canon, including Regina Giddens, a character the New York Times called “that malignant Southern bitch-goddess.” When a prospective business deal promises to bring Regina and her wealthy brothers even more money, they each scramble to secure the spoils for themselves—by any means necessary. The Little Foxes is Hellman at the top of her dramatic form, handing down a juicy indictment of the oldest American family value of all: greed.
