Spare, enigmatic, and absurdly funny, Endgame charts a day in the life of a family fallen on mysteriously hard times: blind and chair-bound Hamm, his beleaguered servant Clov, his parents Nagg and Nell, who live in two ashbins and long for sugar-plums, and a black toy dog with a missing leg.

Beckett’s language is honed to a distilled beauty, and his archetypal characters achieve a poetic grace despite their bizarre condition. Fifty years after it burst onto the world’s stages, Endgame is as exquisite and surprising as ever.

Marcus Stern, who has created some of the A.R.T.’s most talked about and exciting shows including Donnie Darko, The Onion Cellar, Nocturne, and Buried Child, directs this modern masterpiece, which features the comic geniuses of the Resident Acting Company, Remo Airaldi, Thomas Derrah, Will LeBow, and Karen MacDonald.
