Join LNT for the beginning of the play development process with the latest work by Vermont s Jeanne Beckwith - Sam & Jim in Hell - conjuring Irish literary legends Samuel Beckett & James Joyce -on Saint Patrick s Day, March 17th! I think it s a brilliant idea, particularly at this point in time against the background of our Covid-carved landscape, to put Beckett and Joyce together to commiserate, confide, cajole, and confound each other. - says Lost Nation Theater founder Kim Allen Bent, who is directing the reading. The idea for Sam & Jim in Hell came as Jeanne walked along the banks of the River Liffey in Dublin about a year and a half ago. Jeanne saw the Samuel Beckett Bridge, and wondered what Beckett might think about a bridge named in his honor. She thought about how Beckett - and his compatriot James Joyce - had both become Irish Icons in spite of their feeling estranged from the Ireland of their time.
