𝓢𝓽𝓮𝓹𝓱𝓮𝓷 𝓡𝓮𝓪 stars in Beckett’s quietly distilled masterpiece, 𝗞𝗿𝗮𝗽𝗽’𝘀 𝗟𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗧𝗮𝗽𝗲. His long history with the work of Samuel Beckett includes working with Beckett himself when he played the character Clov in a production of Endgame at the Royal Court Theatre in London, at the age of 29.
Stephen spoke of that first encounter with Samuel Beckett: ‘I was included in the cast of Endgame due to the premature death of the great Jack McGowran, who should have played Clov opposite Pat Magee. I joined the surviving team of extraordinary giants - Beckett, Magee and the director Donald McWhinnie - at the Royal Court for the celebration of Beckett’s 70th birthday. *I learned more in that few weeks than before or since, from all three men, but particularly of course from Sam.’*

Landmark’s 20th anniversary production promises to be a major theatrical event.
Directed by Vicky Featherstone, artistic director of the Royal Court for the past ten years, the design team includes Jamie Vartan (set); Katie Davenport (costume); Paul Keogan (lighting) and Kevin Gleeson (sound).
Vicky said, ‘It is a huge honour to be directing this formidable and exacting play by the father of all playwrights – Samuel Beckett.
And for that to be part of landmark’s 20th anniversary season and to celebrate all the beautiful work that Anne Clarke has made over that time feels very special.
𝗞𝗿𝗮𝗽𝗽’𝘀 𝗟𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗧𝗮𝗽𝗲 premiered at the Royal Court in 1958 – the theatre that I have been AD of for the past 10 years. * 𝓢𝓽𝓮𝓹𝓱𝓮𝓷 𝓡𝓮𝓪 was directed by Beckett in our building. It is an utter privilege to be embarking on this adventure with the legend that is 𝓢𝓽𝓮𝓹𝓱𝓮𝓷 𝓡𝓮𝓪. To watch Krapp stirring back to life as Stephen inhabits him is the experience of a lifetime. I can’t wait for us to share it with you all.’*
