Rye Mummers presents

ENDGAME

by Samuel Beckett


Peckham's renaissance continues! After sculpture on a car park roof, and opera in the old cricket bat

factory - now, it's theatre of the absurd coming to The Bussey on Rye Lane.

Chris Haydon is directing a company of four local actors including Peter Benedict of Denman Road, Peckham

and Ricci Harnett of North Cross Road, in a production of Beckett's great play ENDGAME.

Ricci is returning to the stage after time in the movies, including 28 Days Later and Rise Of The

Footsoldier. Peter is a total man of theatre having produced, directed, written and acted. The other cast

members are Fiona Watson and Billy Colvill.

The three week run: Tuesday 25 June to Saturday 13 July.

Performances 8pm, Wednesday matinee at 2.30pm.

Tickets ?10/?8 concs with Mondays & matinees at ?5.

ENDGAME is one of the great plays of the 20th Century - a hymn to the vicissitudes of old age - a

post-apocalyptic reverie on man's nihilistic destiny - set inside a human skull it's an avant garde essay

on the nuclear family and care in the community - an exploration of the absurdity of life and the

nonsensical possibility of Love - an academic's heaven - a cautious, irascible, humourous and

human approach to Death ...

... to what extent humanity can survive in theatre of the absurd will be revealed.


ENDGAME is designed by Peter Avery of 1st Framework and Emma Kesterton.

      Signed, and I will share it elsewhere, thank you for posting this. It's got nearly 70,000 signatures at present, and apparently runs till February.

      There’s a couple of Gov petitions going on in relation to fireworks at the moment but this one is for banning them entirely except organised displays if anyone wants to sign. This is the only sensible way forward in my view. No one should be able to let them off in gardens or anywhere like that, it’s crazy. I am surprised some of you have said it hasn’t been as bad this year. I live near DKH Saino and it’s been absolutely terrible my way for days. This petition gained about 20,000 just in the last day or so so clearly the appetite is there! https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/732559

      I'd have thought they could use some of  their income from hiring out a large part of Brockwell Park in the summer (therefore, as I understand it, preventing local residents from using much of it) to put on a firework display there  in the autumn which might somewhat make up to those residents for the previous loss of use of the park. And also generate goodwill.

      Dulwich library closing for refurbishment

      By Sue · Posted

      Clicking on your name, I see you've made seven posts on here since you joined  around four years ago, and they've all been about local libraries. And none of the posts are  very pleasant. Care to share with the rest of us where  your particular interest in libraries comes from? Do you work in one of them?
