Three Plays: Ohio Impromptu, Catastrophe, What Where

By Samuel Beckett

Book Overview

These three short plays--by the acknowledged master of condensed, 'less is more' language--formed a triple bill performed during the 1983-4 New York theater season to nearly universal critical acclaim. 'Ohio Impromptu...speaks poetically and with a stunning theatricality about a last love. Catastrophe...is a politically prescient black comedy about man's enslavement by the state. What Where, the most enigmatic of three pieces, is a cryptic gram of truth about the manipulation of man by man. A compelling triptych.' ---Mel Gussow, The New York Times
