Krapp’s Last Tape, a rarely seen gem from Nobel Prize–winning playwright Samuel Beckett, opens Friday, January 4th at 21Ten Theater!
This succinct and searing play features veteran Portland actor Bruce Burkhartsmeier in the title role, and is directed by the luminary Victoria Parker-Pohl.
This play cleverly and movingly examines three iterations of one man—at ages 29, 39 and 69—as captured on tape. Critic Michael Billington writes that Krapp’s Last Tape “never ceases to astonish.”
