“The Last Tape” – Joachim Henschke as Krapp speaks sourly into the tape recorder.

In the theater people often fail loudly – when we do, we usually meet heroes who, even if it doesn’t even happen loudly, break their fate with a grand gesture. In life, however, many fail – if one can ever speak of true failure at all, but that is a more philosophical, if not theological question – rather quietly. If that’s a bit of an exaggeration, it’s allowed in this piece, namely “Krapp’s Last Tape” by Samuel Beckett from 1958.
