| Description |
Celebrated French actor Sami Frey presents Premier Amour, a short story by renowned Irish avant-garde writer Samuel Beckett. Originally written in French in 1946, Premier Amour tells the story of a soulless narrator, discovered by a prostitute on a park bench after becoming homeless. The emotional tale delves into the cruel and sexual relationship that unfolds after this encounter.
Acclaimed by audiences in Paris, Frey’s expressive self-directed performance prompted Le Monde to observe that ’Between Sami Frey and Samuel Beckett the link is quite obvious.’
Two performances only! 8pm on Friday, April 9 and Saturday, April 10.
In French with English supertitles.
