Après Wavering Abode et Company, ce dernier volet de la trilogie Beckett s’écrit comme une pulsion vers un point de fuite, un désir d’horizon, un mouvement vers un espace libératoire.
Par la présence imposante dès l’ouverture du spectacle, d’un artefact lumineux surplombant l’espace, le spectacle s’inscrit d’emblée dans le registre de la contemplation et du silence. A l’instar d’une vaste nature morte, trois figures semblent prêtes à se figer et se pétrifier.
After Wavering Abode and Company, the last part of Beckett's trilogy was written as an urge to go toward a vanishing point, a desire for the horizon, a movement toward a liberating space.
Through the imposing presence since the start of the performance of a luminous artefact towering over the space, the performance immediately establishes a register of contemplation and silence. In this part, which, like a huge still-life, three figures seem ready to freeze and petrify.


Le spectateur est invité à investir une forme de perception qui correspond à l’acte intime de clore les paupières, pour non pas accéder au rêve et à l’apaisement mais au contraire ouvrir plus largement son regard. Car c’est bien ce qui n’est pas visible à l’œil qui réellement et véritablement agit en profondeur.
The spectators are invited to take on a form of perception that corresponds to the intimate act of closing one's eyes, not so as to access the dream and appeasement, but to further expand the gaze. It is in fact what is not visible to the eye that really and truly acts profoundly.
