Endgame is set in a bare room, which serves as a shelter for four characters: Hamm the master, Clov his servant and Hamm's mother and father, Nell and Nagg. Outside all seems dead and nothing happens. Inside, the characters pass the time toying with fears and illusions of a possible change, all along sensing the inevitability of their end.

This one-act play by Noble Prize-winning Irish playwright, Samuel Beckett, premiered in 1957 at London's Royal Court Theatre. Endgame is considered by some to be amongst Beckett's most important works.
