Inspired by the late theatre of Samuel Beckett, Try Try Try is a percussion theatre piece about effort in a hostile world. Three figures take to a stage where rhythm and gesture form relationships, create tasks, and inspire conflict. Percussion, theatre, and storytelling combine to explore the human capacity to keep trying against all odds.
