Samuel Beckett, one of the great avant-garde Irish dramatists and writers of the next half from the twentieth hundred years, was created on 13 April 1906. He died in 1989. He gained the Nobel Reward for Books in 1969. His centenary will be celebrated throughout 2006 with shows of his major plays, but the most well-known of them all will become, unquestionably, the play with which he initial produced his name, Looking forward to Godot. It opened up the gates to the theatre from the absurd as four men appear on the stage, apparently with purpose but (maybe) waiting for someone called Godot. It is stark, funny, bemusing and still deeply impacting half a century since its 1st production. Within this fresh documenting for audiobook, John Tydeman, for quite some time mind of BBC Radio Drama, takes a new look at among the milestones in Traditional western drama. It follows the highly acclaimed recordings of Beckett’s Trilogy, Molloy, Malone Dies as well as the Unnamable published by Naxos AudioBooks.
