Waiting for Godot

 

Waiting for Godot 

This task is based on Waiting for Godot and this task was assigned by Dilip Barad sir.

Samuel Beckett's 1953 play Waiting for Godot  features two main characters, Vladimir (Didi) and Estragon (Gogo), who pass the time through various conversations and interactions as they wait for the mysterious Godot—a figure who ultimately never appears. This play is Beckett’s adaptation of his own original French-language work, En attendant Godot, and carries the English subtitle “a tragicomedy in two acts.” It is widely regarded as Beckett's greatest literary achievement. In a public poll held by the British Royal National Theatre in 1998–99, Waiting for Godot was voted “the most significant English-language play of the 20th century.”

The original French version was written between 9 October 1948 and 29 January 1949. The play had its premiere under the direction of Roger Blin on 5 January 1953 at the Théâtre de Babylone in Paris. Its English-language debut took place in London in 1955.
