The End, a short story by Samuel Beckett, began in English and finished in French. In it a man recounts an episode late in his life when, having been expelled from an institution of care, he finds his own way in the world. He meets a variety of characters and situations before finally lying down to let life ebb away. It is one of Beckett's most complete, most compelling and most beautiful works and is a Gare St Lazare favourite.
Making its premiere at Kilkenny Arts Festival, The End has since toured the UK (Brighton, Liverpool. Edinburgh, Oxford), New Zealand (Auckland), America (New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts) and visits Ballina Arts Centre as part of an extensive Irish tour.
Adm: €12/€10. Booking essential.
