Synopsis by Andrea LeVasseur

The Broadway Theatre Archive presents Samuel Beckett's absurdist play Happy Days, a production of the New York Shakespeare Festival. Originally broadcast on PBS's Great Performances in 1980, it stars Tony-winning actress Irene Worth as Winnie, a woman who optimistically believes in her good fortune even though she's literally buried underground. George Voskovec plays her husband Willie.
