BWW Review: WAITING FORGODOT at Counter-Productions Theatre Company: A Rare gem in a Black Box
by Larry O'Brien - Oct 24, 2017

Counter-Productions Theatre Company begins its 2017/2018 season with Samuel Beckett's absurdist masterpiece, WAITING FOR GODOT at AS220's Black Box Theatre on Empire St. in Providence. The New York Times has called this the greatest play of the Twentieth Century. It has attracted talents from Bert Lahr to Steve Marin and Robin Williams to John Turturro to take it on. I had never seen this play, was somewhat afraid of it, and am now glad I have. Sometimes it's tedious (I think that's deliberate and blame Beckett), but sometimes it's hilarious and sometimes very touching. Here we all are, trapped between life and death.

Counter-Productions Theatre Company presents WAITING FOR GODOT
by BWW News Desk - Oct 20, 2017

Counter-Productions Theatre Company begins its 2017/2018 season with Samuel Beckett's absurdist comedic masterpiece, Waiting for Godot. The play tells the story of two world-weary men, Vladimir and Estragon, as they linger on a barren roadside, awaiting the arrival of the mysterious Godot. It's not clear why they wait for him, although they seek an answer to an unspoken question. They'd rather not be there. They want to move on. Still they wait. And wait. And wait.
