Krapp's Last Tape

United Kingdom - England
Performer / Performance company

Shortcut Productions

Samuel Beckett's unique take on life is performed by award-winning Fringe veteran Kevin Short. The protagonist, Krapp, revisits his younger self via audio tapes he has recorded over the years. The younger Krapp was full of hope and idealism. The older Krapp is full of woe and torment. The play is thought to be Beckett at his most autobiographical. Krapp reflects on his failed love-life, his heavy drinking and where things might have gone wrong. His appetite for bananas is nevertheless still ever present. This haunting humorous piece will live on in the mind beyond its enactment.
