Krapp's Last Tape by Samuel Beckett
 

Australian satirist and theatre icon Max Gillies teams with award-winning director and long-time Beckett aficionado Laurence Strangio to present Krapp’s Last Tape – Samuel Beckett’s remarkable duet for solo performer and tape recorder.

The comic meets the tragic in this timeless evocation of memory, existence and lost love, as Krapp, now in his 70th  year, prepares for the last annual recording of his aspirations and disappointments. As befits a play about the marking and recording of anniversaries, this production marks the 60th anniversary of its first staging, and the 50th anniversary of Max Gillies’ first portrayal of the title role.
