An hypnotic journey into the musical mind of Samuel Beckett by master interpreters, Gare St Lazare Ireland - ‘The Unparalleled Beckett Champions’ (New York Times).
“an uplifting evening of Samuel Beckett… selections from the author’s prose, set to a thrilling musical score” – The Telegraph
In exploring the use of music in Samuel Beckett’s work, Gare St Lazare Ireland have created an entirely original performance that defies easy description. A meditation, a celebration, an interpretation; Here All Night’s absence of linear narrative frees us to go where the words and music bring us and offers another way to access both Beckett’s world and our own.
Conceived and created by Judy Hegarty Lovett, Conor Lovett, Paul Clark and Caoimhín Ó Raghallaigh. Featuring music and texts by Samuel Beckett and an original artwork by Brian O’Doherty.
Here All Night includes texts from Watt, First Love, Malone Dies, The Unnamable and Words & Music.
