Samuel Beckett's Endgame emphasizes the pointless cycles of existence.
Endgame, written by Samuel Beckett, is a one-act play with four characters. It was originally written in French.
Endgame's beginning, the word "finished " is repeated, and the rest of the play hammers away at the notion that beginnings and endings are intertwined, that existence is cyclical.
In 1984, JoAnne Akalaitis directed the play at the American Repertory Theatre in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
