Permanent Incomplete

Available for development and production.

IDEAL FOR UNIVERSITY THEATRE DEPARTMENTS.

“Your hunch was correct that Beckett and I might be right for one another. But I never realized until this moment why he’s so right for you, too. You’re as stuck as I am in a state of entropic decay, of perpetual waiting, of Sisyphian failure. But it’s more than that. It’s that you and I have grown old together, and have been given the chance to watch how we’ve each changed, or not changed. And, sad to say, we haven’t”

About the Play:

Lynn, a  young theatre professor at a small college in 1983, loves teaching, and loves watching her students enter her life as 18-year-olds and leave  as interesting , educated, creative artists. But what about Brendan, who doesn’t finish any papers, but says he wants to graduate?  Is he  just a con man ? Or is he tragically stuck in a Beckett-like universe?  As the years (and years, and years) go by without Brendan getting any closer to finishing his degree, Lynn has the opportunity to alter her opinion, as they work on a play by Samuel Beckett together.
