In Waiting for Godot, the seminal work by Samuel Beckett, one of the masters of 20th-century drama, the stark realities of a thoroughly alienated world are conveyed. Didi and Gogo, modern literature’s two most valiant vagrants, have come to attend the elusive Mr. Godot. This darkly comic play speaks of human perplexity, of kindness, of hope — and it forever changed the way we view theater.
