How do twenty-first century theatre practitioners negotiate the
dynamics of tradition and innovation across the works of Samuel
Beckett? Beckett's own tendencies toward fluidity of genre,
iteration/repetition, and collaboration - modes that also define
the 'experimental' - allow for greater openness than is often
assumed. Reading recent performances for creative uses of
embodiment, environment, and technology reveals the increasingly
interdisciplinary, international, and intermedial character of
contemporary Beckettian practice. The experimentation of current
practitioners challenges a discourse based on historical
controversies, exposing a still-expanding terrain for Beckett in
performance.
