Beckett on Tape
Productions of Samuel Beckett's Work on Film, Video and Audio
The Endpage is pleased to make available the complete listings of Beckett on Tape, compiled by Kees Hessing, in consultation with Adriaan van der Weel and Ruud Hisgen for Academic Press Leiden. Originally published in 1992, this catalogue has been expanded and adapted to HTML format by Martijn Blokker, a student at the Rijksuniversiteit Leiden.
The information offered here originally appeared in the book Beckett on Tape by Kees Hessing, published by the Academic Press Leiden. This page wishes to continue the efforts started with the book, which aimed at keeping information accessible that otherwise would have disappeared in obscure archives after use.
The book does not pretend to be complete, neither does this site. Any suggestions and amendments are therefore welcome.
