It is not a clearly defined event with formal conditions: it could lead to a wide range of possible outcomes and feelings in the listener. The bardic tradition that sweeps across human cultures and histories — from the Homeric ESSAY epics to the Sufis, from the biwa hoshi of Japan to the filí of Ireland — shows both the depth and breadth of the human impulse to hear verse aloud. But in our cosmopolitan present, poetry being “voiced” could run the gamut from adolescent (painful sincerity at an open mic) to adult (earnest readings at university book launches) to transhuman (Black Thought’s ten-minute freestyle). Though poetry always transports us somewhere, the destination could be anywhere in Dante’s universe: infernal, purgatorial, or paradisiacal. This particular poetry performance is, perhaps fittingly for the year 2020, set in that everyday limbo that is the cinema. It is consciously conceived for the large-scale screen — a crucial gesture, when so much life is being lived on small screens — and as a physical, collective experience, with an audience in plush CONTENTS BACK TO seats, bathed in light, feeling the powerful surround-sound system within their bodies.

After a discussion of how Beckett’s own practice might be seen as intermedial, the essay analyses the 1996 American Repertory Company programme Beckett Trio, a staging of three of Beckett’s television plays which incorporated live camera projected onto a large screen in a television studio. The second case study analyses Company SJ’s 2014 stage adaptation of a selection of Beckett’s prose texts, Fizzles, in a historic site-specific location in inner city Dublin, which incorporated projected sequences previously filmed in a different location.

  • 'One Other Living Soul': Encountering Strangers in Samuel Beckett's Dramatic Works
    Andrew Goodspeed (Macedonia) ‘one other living soul’: Encountering Strangers in Samuel Beckett’s Dramatic Works This essay seeks to explore an admittedly minor area of the study of Samuel Beck- ett’s drama – the encounter with strangers, and one’s relations with strangers. It is the rarity of such situations that makes it perhaps worth investigating, because these encoun- ters shed light on Beckett’s more general dramatic concerns. As is well acknowledged, Beckett’s theatrical work tends to focus on small groups in close and clear relations with one another, or indeed with individuals enduring memories or voices that will not let them rest (here one might nominate, as examples, Eh Joe or Embers). Setting aside those indi- viduals, the tight concentration of Beckett’s writing upon a few individuals in a specific relation to one another – as in perhaps Come and Go or Play—is one of the playwright’s most common dramatic elements, and likely represents an aspect of his famous efforts towards concentration and compression of dramatic experience. By studying the opposite of these instances, particularly when his characters encounter or remember encountering strangers, this paper hopes to gain some insight upon the more general trends of Beckett’s stagecraft and dramatic themes. It should be acknowledged at the outset, however, that there are a number of am- biguous situations in Beckett’s drama relating to the question of how closely individuals know or relate to one another. A simple survey of people who are obviously strangers or are clearly known to one another is not easily accomplished in Beckett’s drama.

  • Eh Joe E Ohio Impromptu: Self-Representation and Self-Responsibility in Samuel Beckett’S Drama
    EH JOE E OHIO IMPROMPTU: SELF-REPRESENTATION AND SELF-RESPONSIBILITY IN SAMUEL BECKETT’S DRAMA. Maria Margarida C. P. Costa Pinto - Faculty of Social and Human Sciences, UFP Assistent ABSTR A CT In this paper one will be arguing that Beckett, both in the content and form of his writing, points humankind towards help. From the point of view of content, it will analyse Eh Joe (published in 1967) and Ohio Impromptu (published in 1982). Simultaneously, and to look at the form, the power of Beckett’s writing, one will focus on the immanence of the present mo- ment, the moment into which time has collapsed, the moment in which one can accept both the futility of going on and the necessity of going on, the acceptance of the responsibility. Resumo O presente artigo irá abordar simultaneamente o conteúdo e a forma da escrita becketti- ana, assim avançando indicações para o auxílio da Humanidade. Sob o ponto de vista do conteúdo, serão analisadas as peças Eh Joe (publicada em 1967) e Ohio Impromptu (publi- cada em 1982). Simultaneamente, e atendendo à forma, a força da escrita de Beckett, será focada a imanência do momento presente, o momento no qual o tempo entrou em colapso, o momento em que se aceita quer a futilidade de continuar e a necessidade de continuar, a aceitação da responsabilidade. I Part of the appeal of Beckett’s plays is that he evokes so compellingly the destruction of the connection and continuities between past, present and future in contemporary life. It is a destruction one may understand to be not only a self-defence, avoiding the greater pain that connection can threaten with, the pain of guilt, hurt or longing, but also a re- sponse to living in the pre-apocalyptic age.

  • Filmography V6.Indd
    a filmography Foreword by The Irish Film Institute For over 60 years, the Irish Film Institute has been dedicated to the promotion of film culture in Ireland and therefore is proud to present this filmography of Samuel Beckett’s work. Beckett remains one of Ireland’s most important and influential artists and Samuel Beckett – A Filmography provides a snapshot of the worldwide reach and enduring nature of his creativity. As part of the Beckett centenary celebrations held in April 2006, the Irish Film Institute organised a diverse programme of films relating to the work of Beckett, including a tour of the line-up to cinemas around the country. Prior to this, the Irish Film Institute provided the unique opportunity to view all 19 films in the ‘Beckett on Film’ series by screening the entire selection in February 2001. This filmography provides the perfect accompaniment to these previous programmes and it illustrates that Beckett’s work will continue to be adapted for film and television worldwide for years to come. Photograph by Richard Avedon Samuel Beckett – A Filmography was made possible though the kind support of the Department of Arts, Sport and Tourism and the Beckett Centenary Council and Festival Committee. Mark Mulqueen Director, The Irish Film Institute An Introduction Compiling a filmography of Beckett’s work is both a challenging and daunting prospect. It was important, from the outset, to set some parameters for this filmography. Therefore, to this end, I decided to focus on the key area of direct adaptations of Beckett’s work filmed for cinema or television.

  • Gavin Quinn, Artistic Director of Pan Pan Theatre Company, Dublin
    1 Staging Beckett Gavin Quinn, artistic director of Pan Pan Theatre Company, Dublin. Interviewed by Trish McTighe, 28th March 20131 http://panpantheatre.com Trish McTighe: Gavin, firstly thank you very much for taking the time to talk to me about Pan Pan’s recent production of Beckett’s play All That Fall. Before we discuss the production itself, I might begin by asking you for a brief outline of Pan Pan’s history and ethos, some sense of the company’s trajectory since it was formed, and what the company is currently doing. Gavin Quinn: Well, Pan Pan was started in 1991 by Aedín Cosgrove and myself. So it was two people starting a company, straight after university in fact. I suppose we started the company because we didn’t want to work for anyone else. But also I think to try making our own contemporary theatre, perhaps in many ways even making theatre that you might like to see yourself. Or as is the case for a lot of young companies, and young artists: we were simply experimenting, trying things out. We had studied at the Samuel Beckett Centre at Trinity College Dublin. There, Aedín and I studied a mixture of theatre history, theory and practical courses. We were very interested in European theatre and in the development of twentieth century arts practices and how that related to theatre. So in one sense we were making a definite choice that we would try to look at theatre as art, or towards contemporary theatre or progressive theatre practices — there are many different titles and ‘avant-garde’ doesn’t make that much sense any more.

Theatre and Installation: Perspectives on Beckett Derval Tubridy, Goldsmiths, University of London. Writing on the idea of the ‘total’ installation, conceptual artist Ilya Kabakov draws out the relations of authority between the artwork and the viewer, emphasising that the audience is both agent and subject when engaging with an art installation.1 Kabakov considers that installation also operates as theatre since the complex structure of the installation is focused entirely on the experience of the viewer just as the elements of theatre conjoin to provide an environment directed exclusively at the audience. Drawing parallels between installation art, literature, and theatre, Kabakov’s thoughts on total installation provide a context through which to explore the interconnections between installation art and theatre performance.

  • “The Theme of Deliberate Contrasting Coincidence in Beckett's "All That
    “The Theme of Deliberate Contrasting Coincidence in Beckett's "All That Fall"” Aseel Majeed Abstract In most of Beckett’s plays , there are prominent elements of absurdity that are landmarks of his style and the way of his writing like : the physical and the spiritual decay of characters, the disintegration of language as it becomes no longer a means of human communication because there is an inability to establish any kind of mental contact among them. These elements are quite apparent in Beckett’s “All That Fall”. The play exhibits a list of conflicts: one is between powerful forces as that between the force of life represented by Maddy and the forces of death represented by Dan .The second is the conflict and contempt between the old generation and the new one in the case of Dan’s desire to kill the boy fetching him home or as Beckett names it the theme of the new gulfs open under the old gulfs .The third is posing opposite viewpoints of the protagonists as in those of the old couple ,to stress modern man’s alienation . The play presents us perverted kinds of human beings who each seek a shelter as a type of 38 escape and withdrawal from the bitter life in the outside world, like Miss Fitt who seeks refuge in religion which is also a recurrent element in Beckett’s works. Modern man is made and forced to live in an artificial and self-made conditions transforming shadow-like kind of life as Beckett thinks, in the sense of limiting himself to collective or superficial identity like Dan on the one hand.
