All That Fall, Jermyn Street Theatre, London Scenes from an Execution, NT Lyttelton, London Desire Under the Elms, Lyric Hammersmith, London
This has to be major news: a play by Samuel Beckett that has never been staged, till now. Check out the casting, too: Eileen Atkins and Michael Gambon, no less, directed by Trevor Nunn. A queue of theatre fans, hoping for returns, was already snaking up the street last week, outside Jermyn Street's off-West End producing house.
