Trevor Nunn Stages Beckett Radio Play On West End – As Radio Play

“The actors carry scripts; props and gestures are kept to a minimum; and there are microphones hanging from the ceiling to simulate a 1950s studio. Nunn calls it a ‘visualised radio play’, and the conceit is that the audience are eavesdroppers at a studio recording.” (Why not just act it out on stage? The Beckett estate, of course.)
