This production was based on Dr. Cohen's most recent discovery - the meaning of the word "knook" which Beckett always claimed had no meaning. It turns out this is a type of elf from The Adventures of Santa Claus, a very popular children's book during Beckett's childhood. Thus we have the inner child (Gogo), the wearied soul (Didi), about to meet the subconscious nostalgia of Beckett's jaded childhood memories.



I designed the costumes, not the shot! Please visit Paul Kennedy's website to see his photography! <3
