Waiting for Godot

Waiting for Godot
Written by Samuel Beckett Directed by Celia Bonner Two wandering tramps, Vladimir and Estragon, wait by a lonely tree, to meet up with Mr. Godot, an enigmatic figure in a world where time, place and memory are blurred and meaning is where you find it. The tramps hope that Godot will change their lives for the better. Instead, two eccentric travellers arrive, one man on the end of the other's rope. The results are both funny and dangerous in this existential masterpiece. When Samuel Beckett's play exploded on to the London stage in 1953, it shocked as many people as it delighted. There had never been a play like it; indeed it was said that: "Beckett has achieved a theoretical impossibility?a play in which nothing happens, that yet keeps audiences glued to their seats.? Today, Waiting for Godot is accepted as one of the most significant plays of the 20th century.
