Waiting for Godot remains
Samuel Beckett's most magical and beautiful allegory. The story revolves around two seemingly homeless men waiting for someone - or something - named Godot. Vladimir (
Bill Irwin) and Estragon (
Nathan Lane) wait near a tree on a barren stretch of road, inhabiting a drama spun from their own consciousness. The result is a comical wordplay of poetry, dreamscapes and nonsense, which has been interpreted as a somber summation of mankind's inexhaustible search for meaning.
Waiting for Godot has been nominated for three Tony Awards including: Best Revival of a Play, Best Featured Actor in a Play (
John Glover) and Best Costume Design of a Play (
Jane Greenwood); two Drama Desk Awards including: Outstanding Revival of a Play & Outstanding Actor in a Play (
Bill Irwin); five Outer Critic's Circle Awards including: Outstanding Revival of a Play, Outstanding Actor in a Play (
Bill Irwin &
Nathan Lane), Outstanding Director of a Play (
Anthony Page) and Outstanding Set Design (
Santo Loquasto); two Drama League Awards: Distinguished Performance (
Bill Irwin &
John Glover).
