Dernières Pensées
La fin du monde. Menace floue et contours imprécis. Menace pourtant, présage infatigable. Source de bien de poésies, théories délurées, angoisses, urgences, prophéties et commandements. Annoncée cent fois, cent fois retardées, repoussée à une date ultérieure, faute de preuves...
...l'idée d'une mort universelle éveille les passions. L'histoire qu'on veut vous raconter se sert de ce vieux présage.Seulement, imaginez une fin du mode réelle. Une fin du monde devenue vérité générale. Elle est là, demain. C'est officiel! C'est incontestable.
Pire encore, la fin du monde annoncée ne ressemblera en rien à toutes les théories fantasques. Pas de météorites, pas d'explosion, pas de big bang inversé (le fameux big crush). Le monde serait une simulation informatique, qui pourra être éteinte, bêtement, par son programmateur.

Final Thoughts
Strindberg always considered that theatre should serve as a biblia pauperum (bible of the poor) to the audiences. One way to achieve this is to talk differently about what an audience already knows. To stage its thoughts and innermost preoccupations.
There is talk about the end of the world all around us in many forms. Some people acknowledge the possibility with fear, others with nonchalant humour, and others with excitement. Do the first think it is going to happen right now? Do the second believe it is impossible? And more interestingly? - do the third think they can benefit from it in any way or form? And, if it is impending, how will it happen?
Having had a source of inspiration various articles about locations where people could gather and be saved as a community from any apocalyptic danger, we have reached two conclusions: a) this has been on people's minds for a while now b) humans have peculiar way of dealing with death sentences - they tend to become rather irrational for some reason...
Beckett's characters probably knew what Godot looked like, but no one knows what the end looks like.
