Access All Beckett!

Playing in Dublin from 6th -14th April.

As part of the Beckett Centenary Festival, Gare St. Lazare Players Ireland will present a unique interpretation of Beckett's prose. These performances will take place in two very different contexts with diverging locations. The Irish Museum of Modern Art will be the first location for the Beckett All Access performances. The Beckett Trilogy (Molloy, Malone Dies and The Unnamable) will be showcased featuring Paris-based Irish actor, Conor Lovett.

Lovett is no stranger to Beckett, having performed the great artists work in over 50 cities and 13 countries worldwide. Gare St Lazare Players have become synonymous with the work of Samuel Beckett. The company has toured extensively and to wide critical and public acclaim in Ireland and internationally.

The Irish première of A Piece of Monologue will star Conor Lovet and is directed by the acclaimed Walter Asmus. This short solo drama is one of Beckett's most revered achievements. A Piece of Monologue presents the audience with a ghostly figure faintly lit by lamplight conjuring an array of images and memories.

The second location for the Access All Becketts performance is the stunning and shiny new CHQ building at the Dublin Docklands. Enough was first published as Assez  in France in 1966. The following year it was translated into English. It is a retrospective about a narrator of deliberately indeterminate gender who speaks about a companionship with an older man. Enough is one of Beckett's most enigmatic pieces.
