The soft light from above dimly illuminates three motionless
figures. Flo, Vi, and Ru—friends since childhood—are sitting
side by side on a narrow bench-like seat.
Come and Go is skeletal drama of a very remarkable kind: a
five-act Shakespearean tragedy played in three minutes by
three ghosts playing with three echoes—Beckett’s art of allu
sion at its most delicate and its most cunning.
