Happy Days


This event is in the past. This is an archive page for reference.

Samuel Beckett's Happy Days directed by Deborah Warner, with Fiona Shaw as Winnie.

Blazing light, scorched grass. Buried to above her waist and woken by a piercing bell, Winnie chatters away as she rummages in a bag, brushes her teeth, pulls out and kisses a revolver. Her husband, Willie, responds now and then, reads from an old paper, studies a pornographic postcard. A second bell signals the end of another happy day.

Written in 1960, Samuel Beckett's extraordinary play opened the Lyttelton Theatre in 1976.
