Fin de partie

“Life’s but a walking shadow… a tale told by an idiot, signifying nothing” – William Shakespeare

“It’s Pascal’s Pensées played by the Fratellini clowns!” said Jean Anouilh.

Four characters, prisoners of their own bodies, live in the “last refuge”, as everything around them seems destroyed.

An end of the world! A hunger for words! Where everything repeats endlessly and everything keeps to a rhythm.

A major play by Samuel Beckett (Endgame), theatre within theatre, this family huis clos blows apart the essence of tragedy and holds up a mirror to the human condition.

Accessible to all, this clownish yet serious, desperate yet cheerful, dark yet luminous text leaves no one indifferent.
