Krapp's Last Tape performance at Artsdepot raises funds for charity

Artsdepot in North Finchley will host a performance of Samuel Beckett's tragicomedy 'Krapp's Last Tape' on Thursday, 5 November. The one-act play follows a man who records a tape each year on his birthday and listens back to previous recordings. Actor David Westhead described the play as "a tragicomedy filled with hilarious memories, unfulfilled ambition and the mourning of lost love, all wound up in an old reel of tape".

Romanian director's play exploring grief and surrealism opens in North Finchley on 15th October.

The production is part of a UK tour aiming to make quality theatre accessible outside the West End, according to David Westhead. A key objective of the tour is to support the Wembley to Soweto Foundation. Money raised from ticket sales will go to this charity, which offers photographic training and life skills to disadvantaged young people.

Westhead stated that the sense of community is central to the experience, making the production about more than just revisiting Beckett's work. Audiences will have the opportunity to participate in a question and answer session with the artists following the performance.
