Have you ever seen a production by the Irish theater company Druid that was less than phenomenal? I sure haven't. Garry Hynes's unerringly incisive direction, the uniformly sensational acting -- and, of course, a seemingly intuitive grasp of the great wealth of Irish dramatic literature (not that they're slouches with Shakespeare). So, if you want to see anybody do Beckett's great great dark absurd comic representation of Life As We Know It, it's Druid.
