THEATER ALL YEAR | Pioneer Place Theatre Company presents "Waiting for Godot"

Voted "the most significant English language play of the 20th Century,” and the beginning of the Absurdist theatre movement, Waiting for Godot follows a pair of men who divert themselves while waiting expectantly for someone named Godot to arrive. They claim he's an acquaintance but in fact hardly know him, admitting that they would not recognize him were they to see him. To occupy the time they eat, sleep, converse, argue, sing, play games, exercise, swap hats, and contemplate suicide–anything "to hold the terrible silence at bay." By Samuel Beckett
