Corey Wakeling. Beckett’s Laboratory: Experiments in the Theatre Enclosure

Beckett’s Laboratory argues that Beckett’s dramaturgy, rehearsal practices, collaborators, and legacy constitute a laboratory for experiments in human behaviour as well as developing new forms and uses for the theatre itself. Despite inconsistencies in structure and some rhetorical excesses, the book advances the cause of a more “open” Beckettian futurity.
