With hindsight we can see exactly how wrong the labels given to Samuel Beckett have been since it has been said that his writing was sad negative and desperate Nowadays it can be said that several of his pieces submerge us in the reality of human existence but with an element of humor and it is this humor that has saved us Beckett rejects every theory every core belief looking for the truth He observes people amid the darkness and takes them into what is vast and unknown about life so they can discover their truth by taking a look at themselves and others Like Beckett we share their uncertainty their search their pain This theatrical reflection by the masters of European theater Peter Brook and MarieHélène Estienne incorporates parts of Fragments a piece premiered in 2008 and filmed in 2015 and which contains the short plays Rough For Theater I Rockaby Act Without Words II and Neither
