Exploring Beckett, performed by The Story In Motion Project, offers the opportunity to see five of Samuel Beckett’s most influential short plays. In 1969 Beckett was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature and he is today regarded as a towering figure in 20th century writing.

Act Without Words II
A mime with two protagonists delineate the routines of life.
Not I
A pitch-black space. A spotlight fixes on the actors mouth. The mouth utters jumbled sentences at a ferocious pace and obliquely tells a woman's story.
Rockaby
A woman sits in a rocking chair listening to memories and details of her own life and that of her dead mother’s.
Footfalls
May paces back and forth on a strip of bare landing outside her dying - if not already dead - mother's room.
Catastrophe
Beckett's most overtly political play. Dedicated to the former Eastern Bloc dissident playwright, Vaclav Havel.
