Listening to the plays, the poetry, the prose, the letters and the some of the source material of the Irish writer who wrote in French! Samuel Beckett whose astonishing mastery of language and whose humanity and humour inspired and inspires so many 20th and 21st century writers- Pinter, Stoppard, Albee, Havel and many other. Monthly Performed readings bring the words to life followed by an open discussion with admirers and enquirers in the comfortable surroundings of The Cockpit Bar. This season, Mapping Beckett widens its scope and looks a range of writers from the Beckettian mind-map.
