KRAPP’S LAST TAPE

by Samuel Beckett

‘Krapp’s Last Tape is Beckett at his finest’ The Irish Times

Following his outstanding performance in Pinter’s No Man’s Land in 2008, Michael Gambon returns to the Gate in Beckett’s classic one-man show, Krapp’s Last Tape, for a limited number of performances. Each year on his Birthday, self-absorbed Krapp records the important, and the banal, moments of the last year. As he prepares to record a new tape on his 69th Birthday, he begins to listen to his archives and stumbles upon a tender memory that he recorded half a lifetime ago. This immersion in his own history leads Krapp to question with growing regret whether his present lives up to his past.

Saturday Matinee at 3.00pm on selected dates.
