It figures that the great clown Bill Irwin would also be — the same thing — a great Beckettian. This is a new video adaptation of his evening-length exploration of the work of Samuel Beckett, possibly the most mordantly funny person in the history of humanity — and also one of the most poetic, and, as a writer, surgically precise.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: Massey: pour 1 each of Irish Whiskey and Gin, 3/4 oz. sweet Vermouth, 1/4 oz. green Chartreuse, and 1/8 oz. Campari into an ice-filled cocktail shaker. Stir. Strain into a chilled Martini glass or coupe. Garnish with an orange twist.
