THE PLAY:
Happy Days
By Samuel Beckett
Directed by Liz Kane



There are only two characters, a man and a woman, in Beckett's intellectual tickler, but there is a plentitude of ideas and incisive comments on life. In the first of the two short acts Winnie is buried to her waist, but still has access to all the civilized accoutrements: toothbrush, mirror, pistol. In the second act she is buried to her neck, and left to work with only her eyes and her mind. This is sufficient, though, for her happy days. She busies herself with memories and survives on delighting in mundane routine and the tiniest of things. She can go on, she must on. This stirring and stunning work elucidates what Beckett was striving for in what's still known as his most hopeful work--the ferocity of the human spirit, the trap of existence, and the limited nature of communication.
