Waiting For Godot By Samuel Beckett - Rehearsed Reading

Vladimir and Estragon are standing by a road. They'd like to leave, but they can't – they're waiting for Godot. Night is closing in and their patter is running out. On the horizon, they see a figure leading another by a leash. Is this what they've been waiting for?

Waiting for Godot was voted in the top 20 of the nation's favourite plays in a recent poll by English Touring Theatre. This rehearsed reading is a great chance to see it stripped back to the bare essentials.

Without sets or costumes and with actors using scripts, you can focus on the truth and beauty at the core of the play – its humanity. Beckett celebrates the human spirit's ability to endure almost anything.

Or nothing.
