Beckett Shorts - New York Theater Workshop

New York Times: "Anyone who sees Mikhail Baryshnikov in “Beckett Shorts,” the set of four brief plays by Samuel Beckett at the New York Theater Workshop, must reflect on how far this former ballet luminary has come from his training in Leningrad and his roles in the 19th-century classics. He is best known now as a star of the TV series “Sex and the City,” and the distance between that and “Beckett Shorts” is virtually as far. Part of his virtuosity has always dwelt in his need to elude definition or pigeonholing. His whole career has kept people asking, “Who is he really?” — which must be what he wants."
