Following the success of Beckett: Confined, Liverpool 2022, Unreal Cities in association with the Institute of Irish Studies at the University of Liverpool and the Centre Culturel Irlandais present Beckett Unbound 2024. This rich programme of theatre, dance, music, film and discussion explores Samuel Beckett's wild fascination with communication and technology's traversal of time and distance.
