Regarded as the greatest living Beckett
interpreter, Conor Lovett’s one-man performance of First Love has mesmerized audiences around the world.
One of Samuel Beckett’s early novellas, First Love contains much of his distinctive black humor and a plot that is regarded as a masterpiece of the author’s perversity. A young man, expelled from the family home upon the death of his father, takes refuge on a bench by a canal. There he meets a woman who takes him home with comically disastrous consequences.
In this web-exclusive broadcast video, Conor Lovett, discusses First Love's transition from book to stage.

All I can say is RUN to see it! It is an amazing, awesome piece of theater, even if you’ve never heard of Samuel Beckett. Pure poetry in motion.
