Dear Maryam,
He frowned at my face. So, I turned away then disappeared. Then life frowned at his face. Then he turned away and then disappeared.
A tiny bird was injured in his right wing. Which required to take an immediate solution to save his life. The solution was to cut off (mutate (better) ) his right wing. Han can amputation of the wing be a solution, Maryam?
Imagine with me the condition of the bird. His right wing with the help of the left. They used to commit a devilish flying. So, they penetrated the sky as tickle. So, (then) You can hear a loud giggle of the sky (you can hear the sky, giggling loudly) and late at night, in his worm nest, with a cup of mint-tea, with the help of his right wing. Oh Maryam, he used to write beautiful poems to his beloved bird, who lived a few meters from his warm nest.
And now, after the bird lost his right wing what would he do? And how would he write?. The bird decided to leave. He carried some of his belongings. Simple things reminding him of his warm nest, Maryam, and his beloved bird. He took a few steps, but after two more steps in addition of his exhaustion and grief he felt tired, fell down and died.
The doctor who amputated the right wing of the bird, heard the news. So, he was terribly sad. And the beloved bird who cut off her right wing to share with her bird his grief, heard the news. So, she felt tired, fell down and died.

بفس1 ماهو المذهب السيريالي ؟
هي
الاتجاه الأسلوبي الذي ساد الفنون بأوروبا خلال العشرينات والثلاثينات ،
وللسريالية جذور في الدادائية والتصوير الميتافيزيقي لدي " دوشيريكو "
واستقت مباشرة من تجارة الشعراء ، كان رائد السريالية أندريه بريتون الذي رسخ تحرر
الصور والطاقة في اللاوعي باعتبارهما الاهتمام الأول للحركة . ظهرت الأفكار الأولى لهذا الأسلوب لدى الشاعر الفرنسي
"آبو لينير" الذي ابتدع كلمة السريالية عام 1917م .
وكان هناك تياران رئيسان فيها : بلاغي وتجريدي ، لكن كلا الاتجاهين
استخدما المؤثرات العارضة والميكانيكية وتجاهلا الأعراف الأخلاقية والجمالية ،
وذلك وصولاً إلى واقعية جديدة مستقلة بذاتها ، ومن أهم دعاة السريالية كان بيكاسو
، وماكس إيرنست ، وجوان ميرو ، وسلفادور دالي ، ومن أهم الأفلام السريالية المثيرة
للجدل كانت أفلام لويس بونويل

الخطوات
بول فاليري
خطواتك ابناء صمتي
تتقدم بقدسيه وتمهل
نحو مهد يقظتي
تقبل صامته لامعه
ايتها الانسانه الطاهره والظل الالهي
فالتكن خطواتك خفيفه معتدله
يالهي....كل الهبات التي اتوقعها
تأتني مع هذه الاقدام العاريه
من شفتيك الجاهزتين
ليتك تتقدمين وتهدئين ساكن افكاري
بغذاء قبلاتك
لا تتسرعي بهذا العمل الحنون
فهذه الرقه قد تكون او لاتكون
لاني عشت انتظرك
واحساسي لم يكن الا خطواتك

(توضح هذه القصيده الانتظار القلق الذي يسبق لحظه الابداع نجد امراه تتقدم بخطوات بطيئه نحو الشاعر انها الهامه وسيراها اخرون ببساطه امراه وحينئذ لن يتذوقوا الا هذا الحنان ا

For those who haven't get the chance to participate in Drama classes or did but got a low evaluation then you have to do a research about:

All the best,
Some questions as I remember:
Is Hamm a tyrant character?
YES .. Examples:
1- The story of the Three legged dog shows the cruelty of him. The dog is described as sexless and deformed begging for a bone gazing at Hamm, but Hamm was so cruel to him.
2- The story of the man who was crawling on his belly asking and begging for bread for his hungry son.
3- Hamm has the control over the food in the house and his treatment to Clov and his parents are so cruel.
The kitchen in the play represent: that there are two classes: the masters and servants.
The stories were told by the characters in the play: (little stories inside the play):
1- Mad man: The imagination of the mad man is symbolic = The world is meaningless, it had been completely destroied.
2- The tailor and the trouser that was told by Nagg = God created the word in six days and the tailor took 4 months insted of 4 days.
3- The man and the boy
- The story of the sugarplum (Nagg and Hamm)
- Hamm at the end throw the whistle ,, he doesnt need any help any more
- Zero = means death .
- There's a reference to God which means Father ... or Father which means God.
- There is a reference of pray at the end,
- religious references: Christmas, New Year, Pray, God.
From the very beginning .. you can divide the the play into 5 parts, but you have always remember that the play consist of only 1 part. Here are the following divisions: (taken from SparkNotes)
1. Beginning–Nagg's appearance
2. Nagg's appearance–chair ride
3. Chair Ride–Nagg Wakes Up
4. Nagg Wakes Up–Hamm's Monologue
5. From Hamm's monologue–end
About the play:
Clov,
throughout the action of Endgame, is constantly expressing a desire to
leave. The departure of Clov. He
is terrorized by the thought of being left alone, of being the last man on the
earth. This is a familiar fantasy of terror which most men have felt at some
time or other in their existence, and which Beckett has succeeded in casting
into the reality of the play.
All movement has slowed down. Hamm is paralyzed and confined to his chair. Clov walks with difficulty. Nagg and Nell are legless and occupy little space in their ash cans. The setting vaguely resembles a womb and the ash cans are wombs within the womb. The two windows look out onto the sea and the earth, which are without trace of mankind. No affection joins the four characters. Nagg and Nell depend on Hamm for food. Clov, the son-slave, would kill Hamm if he knew the combination to the buffet where the last crackers are stored. Each has the remains of a kind of dream or aspiration that he tries vainly to communicate to the others. Nagg and Nell speak of a boat ride on Lake Como and the accident that made them culs-de-jatte. Hamm recites from time to time a literary story. Clov keeps referring to his departure, which he really knows is impossible.
This is the game that man constantly plays and in which he is always checkmated. The fundamental tragedy or hopelessness of the situation is offset by a fairly steady tone of burlesque and farce. The text is full of surprises and formulas that keep it moving ahead toward its conclusion. The metaphysical conclusion of the play -- and this is the same in Waiting for Godot -- belongs to each individual spectator who will interpret it in accord with his own sensitivity and his own philosophy. In Beckett's art the elements of time and of reason are rejected so that the playwright will be free to exploit the impotency of man. The drama is the lack of meaning which the spectacle of life provides and which is offered to the spectators seated in the theater although it may not be so comprehended by the characters in the plays. In the dialogue between Hamm and Clov, there is an inverted kind of desperate intellectualism. This becomes clearer to the spectators after they have left the theater and they are able on different levels to contemplate the mystery of life.
3. Hamm = The blind son : He is like the King in chess, the most powerful piece whom all others serve, but who is also the most vulnerable. Hamm controls everyone in the play while having absolutely no control over himself or his environment. He bosses Clov around to no end and silences his parents, Nagg and Nell,
whenever they talk for too long, but as for his own unrelenting misery
and the gray, unchanging fallout around him, he is powerless.
- Hamm's great fear is:
a) that existence is cyclical; that beginnings and endings are fused in the grand scheme of things and that life will spring up again.
b) He is terrified of the flea and rat that Clov finds and wants to
exterminate them in case "humanity might start from there all over
again," but he also proposes that he and Clov go South to other
"mammals." Most confusingly, he believes that nature is changing, though all
evidence indicates that it has "zero" change.
c) Under his misanthropic
exterior is a desperate neediness, a fear of being alone that has been
with him ever since childhood (as Nagg tells it).
- Light,
which is used as a symbol of hope and life, expresses many of the
nuances of Hamm's personality. He is attracted to whatever light there
is in the gray world, asking Clov to push him under the window so he
can feel it on his face. But we also learn that he withheld light from
someone named Mother Pegg, who died of darkness.
- In the "endgame" of his life, Hamm is only partially reconciled to
death—he wants it to come, but he admits that he "hesitate[s]" to
"finish." The routines fill this middle ground, staving off death while
drawing it ever closer.
- Hamm is attached to the middles of things, harboring a compulsive need
to return to the middle of the room. Much of his routine day is spent
bickering with Clov, whom he took in as a child years ago and to whom
he became a surrogate father.
4. Clov = Hamm's servant.
- He is less hostile than Hamm, but he harbors a deeper sadness. Nevertheless, he stands up for himself at times, even going so far as to hit Hamm with his toy dog. Clov seems to have lost something dear to him; the story Hamm tells
about the beggar and his child may be a reference to Clov's father and
Clov. No matter what the situation, it is irrefutable that at some point Hamm
took Clov in and became a father figure to him.
- While Clov wonders
repeatedly why he stays with Hamm, his lifelong sense of obligation is
one apparent reason out of a possible three.
- Clov's other main similarity to Hamm is his fear that existence is
cyclical;
a) he kills (or tries to kill) the flea and rat, potential
regenerators,
b) and he wants to kill the boy at the end, the "potential
procreator."
- He opens the play by announcing, "it's finished," and
brings up a question that underscores the play's ideas of repetition:
when does an accumulation of distinct grains become a heap? In Clov's
view, since each grain is always a distinct grain, then what we call a
heap is really an "impossible heap," since it is made up of those
distinct grains.
- In the same vein, a life is not really a life, but a
sequence of moments—until, of course, death closes off those moments
and the moments can be viewed as a single unit.
- For Clov, these moments
are simply repetitive, part of a repetitive existence, and finality is
impossible—he laughs at Hamm's suggestion that they are beginning to
make meaning in their world since a repetitive, cyclical world is in a
constant state of flux and conclusion is unattainable.
- He cannot leave, for leaving Hamm would imply that there is such a thing as
ending one's tenure in one place and beginning a new one elsewhere.
Why Clov serves Hamm and cannot leave him?
a) Becasue Hamm as a master, he threat his servant of starvation.
b) At one point, Hamm suggests that Clov help him out of compassion.
The real reason is that both are dependent on each other and afraid to
leave and be alone, despite their constant threats.

Shhh ... Daddy is talking .. just listen to what he's saying :P
and here's a monologue might be important:
From Hamm's monologue–end:
