Tony Award-winning actor Stephen Dillane will read the work of playwright Samuel Beckett Dec. 7 at the 92nd Street Y.

The Poetry Center hosts the 8 PM evening that will feature Dillane (The Real Thing, "John Adams") reading Beckett's poetry and prose. Dillane will also discuss the work of the late Endgame and Waiting for Godot playwright.

The 92nd Street Y event is scheduled in anticipation of Lincoln Center's Great Performers presentation of One Evening (Dec. 9 and 11). The evening is a pairing of Schubert's "Winterreise," one of Samuel Beckett's favorite pieces of music, with the work of the playwright (as read by Dillane). Katie Mitchell directs.

For tickets phone (212) 415-5500 or visit 92Y.org. The 92nd Street Y is located at 1395 Lexington Avenue.
