========
Four characters locked up in a refuge. Is it the end? Much is at stake.

The relationship between Hamm, the blind and cantankerous master unable to stand, and Clov, his long suffering servant son who cannot sit, is beginning to strain. Nagg and Nell, Hamm’s decrepit parents living in garbage cans, are not helping matters. They too seem stuck between light and dark, life and death. Ruminating on past deeds and actions that, at their core, are meaningless.

This tragicomedy reveals the constant duel between tyranny and submission and the need and desire to break free of the cycle. Confusion reigns – is it the beginning of the end or the end of the beginning? Beckett (awarded the 1969 Nobel Prize in Literature) considered this his favourite play, even over Waiting for Godot. As the chess game reference implies, Endgame is about how or why one bothers to move at all, when all moves lead to death.

Black Swan welcomes the return of Founding Artistic Director Andrew Ross, to direct this rarely seen and engaging piece of absurd theatre.

    This is one of those plays that sounds as tedious as the full 5-hour version of Hamlet, but hey, its a classic, so must be good.
    If you enjoy those TV comedies that consist mostly of people talking - from Seinfeld to a whole bunch on Netflix lately - you might enjoy this.

  • There's a Heath Ledger Theatre?

    Cool.
    I really liked the guy's acting, so its nice to hear of a place named after him.

      There are not a lot of famous actors from Perth. It was a choice between Heath, the red power ranger guy, or Rolf Harris.

      • You got me curious so I Googled famous Perth people… you aren't kidding ;).
