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.
