ADHERE
+ DENY | FOUND AND LOST
Found
and Lost, a new object/puppet theatre piece conceived specially for BECKETTFEST,
cites some of the themes found in the later prose work of Samuel Beckett,
and structurally paraphrases his teleplay GHOST TRIO. Found and Lost is
the story of a man, once loved, who exists in a cloistered world without
clarity of memory. His world has become white-washed; all white. There
are no signs indicating forward or backward. Yet, a white speck of memory
exists in the whiteness. But what is it? Does existence reject all colour?
Has love only become a white speck found and lost in a memory of whiteness?
"The result is almost pre-ordained when a theatre-maker with a penchant
for minimalist, enigmatic works creates a stage homage to the fiction
of a dramatist celebrated for his minimalist, enigmatic writings…
Found and Lost is convincing evidence that Guy, like Beckett, can make
a meal out of a dramatic morsel."
