191521 page (27 x 21), Paris, 5 mars 1961. Il est question de la pièce radiophonique Cendres. (En février 1959, Beckett envoie cette pièce au département théâtre de la BBC. Elle sera sélectionnée par le jury de la RAI pour le prix Italia). “Je regrette que nous n’ayons pu nous rencontrer ces temps-ci, pour reparler de CENDRES. Mon absence s’est prolongée au-delà de ce que j’avais prévu. Je vous écris aujourd’hui pour vous confirmer, sans plus attendre, ce que je vous avais dit lors de notre dernier entretien, à savoir que je tiens essentiellement à ce que le rôle d’Henry soit joué par Roger Blin. Pour le rôle du professeur de musique, Jean Martin me semble tout indiqué...” “Il paraît que Monsieur Jean Nocher m’a insulté au micro de la RTF. C’est une petite satisfaction”. On joint le double sur papier jaune.

After his sentence was commuted he toured Europe with his play "The Cage." There in the 1970s he began his seven-year collaboration with Samuel Beckett serving as the playwrights assistant director on a production of "Waiting for Godot" in Berlin. Cluchey eventually persuaded Beckett to direct him in "Krapps Last Tape" and "Endgame" stagings he later remounted around the world. The two men collaborated with each other until Beckett's death in 1989. Clucheys life and work at San Quentin inspired John Hancocks 1997 prison drama Weeds starring Nick Nolte. Cluchey himself wrote and acted in a play "Rick and Sam" which chronicles his relationship with Beckett. He received an Obie Award for David Mamets "Edmund" a Singapore Festival Award for "Krapps Last Tape" and was the first American to receive Italy's prestigious Premio de la Crítica literary award.
