He doesn't really have that many, and most are short!. I presume you know about Waiting For Godot!.

If you haven't read it, read Krapp's Last Tape!. You could work through them all and it wouldn't take long!. It is one act, I think it is accessible, and it is a nice distillation of many of Beckett's themes!.

Then Happy Days, and then Play!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I second the Krapp's Last Tape recommendation!. It's pretty accessible and very enjoyable!. It's essentially about an old drunk, but it's more complicated than that!. Good stuff!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Waiting for Godot!.

but it's rather oddWww@QuestionHome@Com
