Krapp’s Last Tape
May 26 @ 7:30 pm
£78.00
Why Book? Who can resist the opportunity to see Gary Oldman (Slow Horses) in the intimate setting of the Royal Court?
Perhaps my best years are gone. When there was a chance of happiness. But I wouldn’t want them back. Not with the fire in me now.’
On his 69th birthday, a man sits alone and listens to the echoes of his younger self.
Opening the performance every night is Godot’s To-Do List, a new Beckett-inspired short play by Jerwood New Playwright Leo Simpe-Asante. Winner of the 2025 inaugural Royal Court Young Playwrights Award, this curtain-raising comedy follows seven decades on from Krapp’s Last Tape’s own debut as a curtain-raiser on our stage.
