Beckett at Enniskillen Royal
This year’s Senior Drama production at Enniskillen Royal Grammar School was “Footsteps”. As we have recently, temporarily, decanted from Portora Hill, one of our legacy sites, to mark this event we curated an evening of entertainment through Art, Moving Image Art, Music and Drama, celebrating both the cultural life we have inherited from previous generations of pupils and the cultural life of the present generation.
The evening featured three short plays by Samuel Beckett; ‘Quad’, ‘Play’ and ‘Catastrophe’. There was also a display of original designs, by Jocelyn Herbert, of some of Beckett’s London productions.
