Exciting news on Philip's Beckett omnibus show front, and we need you help!
As Beckett says in Endgame “The end is in the beginning….and yet you go on” and for fellow-actor Sarah & Philip its going on to Northern Ireland this September, to tour and perform our show and run Beckett-themed workshops and talks across the six counties. More details to follow.
Our key objective in that project has been to grow the Beckett community, particularly those audiences who have little or no experience of Beckett's work. This is theatre exploring what it is to be alive.
We want this new venture overseas to be as accessible as possible, which means:
- Keeping ticket prices affordable
- Funding free workshop places and seats for young people
- Getting us and all our kit over to and around N Ireland, in the back of a car
So we need your help. We’ve set up a Crowdfunder page here:
https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/the-end-is-in-the-beginning
Do visit, please donate if you are able to, and please share this too. So we can “try again, fail again, fail better…” in Northern Ireland this Autumn. Thank you good people.

Bringing Beckett back to Northern Ireland. Help us bring The End Is In The Beginning to audiences this September.

Luca is still off being a star in London, but see Philip’s latest theatrical adventures…the last chances to catch this show before we return in the Autumn.
Our audiences say: "A heart warmer, in these days of bonkersdom!", "Utterly compelling performances. One of the best pieces of theatre I’ve ever seen", "On the edge of my seat. Full of twists and turns”, "We were transfixed! What a treat”.
