  • All That Fall is a one-act radio play by Samuel Beckett produced following a request from the BBC. It was written in English and completed in September 1956. The autograph copy is titled Lovely Day for the Races. It was published in French, in a translation by Robert Pinget revised by Beckett himself, as Tous ceux qui tombent. When the germ of All that Fall came to him, Beckett wrote to a friend, Nancy Cunard: "Never thought about radio play technique but in the dead of t’other night got a nice gruesome idea full of cartwheels and dragging of feet and puffing and panting which may or may not lead to something." Although the play was written quickly and with few redrafts, the subject matter was deeply personal causing him to sink into what he called "a whirl of depression" when he wrote to his US publisher Barney Rosset in August. In fact in September "he cancelled all his appointments in Paris for a week simply because he felt wholly incapable of facing people" and worked on the script until its completion. It was first broadcast on the BBC Third Programme, 13 January 1957 featuring Mary O'Farrell as Maddy Rooney with J. G. Devlin as her husband, Dan. Soon-to-be Beckett regulars, Patrick Magee and Jack MacGowran also had small parts. The producer was Donald McWhinnie. (en)
  • Tous ceux qui tombent est un drame radiophonique de Samuel Beckett. Elle est la traduction par Robert Pinget, révisée par l'auteur de la version anglaise All That Fall. Elle a été mise en ondes pour la radio en 1959 par Alain Trutat, jouée par Roger Blin, Jean Martin, Maryse Paillet et le jeune Patrick Dewaere (Patrick Maurin). Elle a été ensuite adaptée pour la télévision, malgré les réticences de l'auteur pour toute forme de mise en scène, téléfilm en noir et blanc réalisé par Michel Mitrani, produit par l'ORTF et diffusé pour la première fois sur la première chaîne française, le 25 février 1963. Le téléfilm est jugé « mal fait je trouve, mais bien reçu » par Beckett. (fr)
  • Tutti quelli che cadono (All That Fall) è un dramma radiofonico di Samuel Beckett del 1956, scritto in inglese per il terzo canale radio della BBC e pubblicato nel 1957 dall'editore londinese Faber and Faber. Il manoscritto porta il titolo di Lovely Day for the Races. Il testo fu tradotto anche in francese (da Robert Pinget con l'aiuto dell'autore) come Tous ceux qui tombient. Diverse repliche sono state improntate in varie radio di diverse lingue, ma Beckett si rifiutò di rappresentarlo in teatro, persino quando a chiederglielo furono grandi registi come Ingmar Bergman e Laurence Olivier. Solo dopo qualche anno dalla morte dell'autore qualche permesso di rappresentazione è stato concesso dagli eredi. Alla radio italiana (RAI) fu trasmesso per la prima volta il 24 marzo 1961, con la regia di Giorgio Bandini. (it)
