Happy Days

Samuel Beckett’s classic play about a woman, Winnie, who figuratively and literally buries herself in the sand as she tries to witter away the awfulness of the world receives a handsome-looking sixtieth-anniversary revival from the venerable Trevor Nunn, who has taken quite the interest in Beckett in recent years. It’ll be performed by Lisa Dwan, one of the great modern interpreters of the great Irish playwright, famously with her take on Beckett’s ‘floating mouth’ monologue ‘Not I’, which had a West End run a few years back.
