Som en lille opvarmning til Why Not Theatre Company‘s aktuelle opsætning af HAPPY DAYS vil den newzealandske/danske skuespiller Nathan Meister læse op af udvalgte Samuel Beckett-prosatekster i vores foyer på lørdage og torsdage i september.
Samuel Beckett er jo kendt som en af grundlæggerne af den absurde teatertradition, men man er mindre bekendt med hans mange fine prosaværker. Så nu giver Why Not Theatre Company dig muligheden for at læne dig tilbage i teatrets bløde foyerstole og opleve en anden side af mesterens fabelagtige sprogunivers.
Der vil bl.a. blive læst op fra The End, Expelled og Calmative. Samtlige tekster er skrevet i 1940’erne og behandler temaer som kroppens forfald, ensomhed og døden, som kun Beckett kan gøre det. Oplæsningerne varer ca. 30 min., det foregår på engelsk, og det koster nul kroner at overvære. Bare mød op!
