why is it that with two of them, one of them, not getting bogged down by that element. why is it that there is only the one hat on the table, ?? maybe i should watch the piece entire, i will do at a later stage , but just flicking through the choice of his works for now,Is there a deliberate ,specific reason for a single hat?or is it just an element the director chucked in to add a touch of colour to the scene?if you trully know please enlighten me

It's because Beckett typically leaves it ambiguous as to whether there are two different people, or that the two characters - 'reader' and 'listener' are actually two aspects of one person's psyche. Beckett specifies that there should be only one hat on the table. I believe that this suggests that the two characters represent one character, and the 'reader' has been imagined or dreamt by 'listener', in an attempt to find comfort. There is quite a good article about this on Wikipedia.
