Before Seinfeld, Big Brother or the Harlem Shake, Samuel Beckett made the exploration of nothingness and the quirky-everyday, accessible, humorous and worthy of attention. On March 27th in the next instalment of our Empty Space Series - Beckett’s Briefs, audiences can relax and enjoy the wit, humanity and sheer fun of his work. The "Briefs" are from a selection of Beckett's prose, as well as reflections on the man by friends and fellow artists. Performed by John Koensgen & Kristina Watt, hot off their brilliant turn in Third Wall's production of God of Carnage, the readings will come from such classics as Dante and the Lobster, Mercier and Camier (cited by some as the precursor for Waiting for Godot), Texts for Nothing, Molloy, and The Expelled. Joining John and Kristina will be Artistic Director, James Richardson.

Third Wall's production of Yasmina Reza's God of Carnage is now closed. God of Carnage has been one of our company's most successful shows. A great big thank you to our cast and production team for their hard work, and for generously giving of their time and talents for this production. Third Wall is also very grateful to our audiences' wonderful support. The Company's work is made all that much more worthwhile when you, our supporters, have at the theatre or online shared your good wishes with us. Check out our media page for some great reviews!
