WAITING FOR GODOT

A TRAGICOMEDY BY SAMUEL BECKETT

An amateur production by permission of Concord Theatricals

Wednesday 13th August – Saturday 16th August 2025

Our Summer Studio production is Beckett’s classic existentialist play.
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. 

Ticket prices are £9.50
