Endgame

The Catastrophic Theatre

Endgame

by Samuel Beckett; directed by Jason Nodler

The earth is barren. The sea stands still. There is less and less of anything here. In the shelter, blind despot Hamm (who can’t stand up) lords over his weary attendant Clov (who can’t sit down), each dependent on the other. Hamm’s legless parents Nagg and Nell slowly expire in adjacent trash bins, confined there by their son. Day after punishing day, Hamm steers Clov through a series of senseless, circular routines in impotent defiance of a predetermined outcome. With each reminder of the death that awaits him outside, Clov inches nearer to the exit. 

Nobody does tragicomedy like Samuel Beckett. A central line from the play, “Nothing is funnier than unhappiness,” practically defines the genre. Director Jason Nodler and Greg Dean (Hamm) revisit their roles from Catastrophic’s 1995 and 2012 productions. Luis Galindo (Clov), Jeff Miller (Nagg), and Julia Oppenheim (Nell) round out the cast.

“Catastrophic Theatre’s stark, unflinching production of Samuel Beckett’s Endgame demonstrates exactly why this company and its artistic director Jason Nodler are so important to the city’s cultural life.” – Houston ChronicleRead more

My Fair Lady

Stoic Theatre at UST

Book and Lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner; Music by Frederick Loewe; Adapted from George Bernard Shaw's Play and Gabriel Pascal's Motion Picture "PYGMALION;” Original Production Directed by Moss Hart

My Fair Lady is a beloved Lerner and Loewe musical, based on George Bernard Shaw’s Pygmalion, that tells the story of Eliza Doolittle, a Cockney flower seller who becomes the subject of a bet by Professor Henry Higgins. Higgins wagers he can transform her speech and manners enough to pass her off as a duchess at a high-society ball. Along the way, the witty, romantic, and often sharp exchanges between Eliza and Higgins explore themes of class, identity, and independence, all set to one of musical theatre’s most iconic scores.Read more
