Endgame presented by Washington Stage Guild at Undercroft Theatre

Endgame

Undercroft Theatre
900 Massachusetts Ave. NW Washington

A quartet of characters inhabit a nearly empty room, surrounded by nothing, it seems. Do they want it to end, or can they go on with their limited lives? A profound and eerie masterpiece from Beckett, the author of WAITING FOR GODOT and HAPPY DAYS, the latter seen at WSG in 1990.

"...What the director Alan Wade has done with this nihilistic fable about meaninglessness and mortality — albeit relieved by quite a bit of wit and humor — is remarkable. In casting Bill Largess as Hamm and Matty Griffiths as Clov, Wade has enabled a unique scene-partner chemistry that is a pleasure (not a word in Beckett’s vocabulary) to behold. As written, the play’s language can come off like verbal wallpaper — cryptic, staccato, repetitive, without context — inviting automaton enunciation."

"...Washington Stage Guild has mounted a production of Samuel Beckett's "Endgame" that is more than satisfactory in its parts. The acting, direction, and set and sound design are all top-notch."
