Krapp’s Last Tape

Suffolk theatre shows Beckett

Revel in Samuel Beckett's riveting journey into the human soul.

Stockard Channing’s production of Krapp’s Last Tape, starring David Westhead as ‘Krapp.’

A 50-minute theatrical experience that delves into the life of Krapp, who, at the age of 69, looks back over his life and tries to make sense of it through listening to tape recordings he made as a younger man – recordings which diarise the daily events of his life.

Bringing her unique directorial vision to this production, Academy Award nominee Stockard Channing (Grease, The West Wing, Six Degrees of Separation) explores the intricate layers of Beckett’s masterpiece and Krapp’s solitary world. Starring David Westhead (W1A, Strike, Star Wars, Enola Holmes, The Bodyguard), a veteran of The Royal National Theatre and Royal Shakespeare Company.

The production has toured globally to eclectic, site-specific venues, from disused function rooms to underground vaults, affording an intimate and powerful theatrical experience.

"A complete stunner... Westhead is intense and compelling.” - Birmingham Press
