      Got your point. It's garbled rubbish, anyway. Very much a case of 'The Emperor's New Clothes' as seen by fake intellectuals.

    The story of this production and tour is truly remarkable. It’s worth a moment to read about how this particular group came together and what it meant for them to put on this play. Gratitude to all involved-thanks for posting.

    Two men waiting for something, trying to grasp what they already have while wasting their time waiting for some other person to give them something. Estragon even says they should strike while the iron is hot, not waste time waiting for someone that might never even show his face. And the irony? Godot never shows his face. Sounds like our hope and dreams. Abstractions that keep us locked where we are, inside our own heads.

      @@chrisparker8241 Respectfully, I agree with you. If you define Godot as Death ,then yes. But we all have our own definition of Godot . Even Samuel Beckett once said that he would have written about Godot (Who is Godot) if he had known it. I don't remember now . I read it around 27/28 years ago. Thank you for your new insight.

      Godot is something like a landlord (the boys talk about him)his name is associated with God ,associatively ,in the minds of these 2 who don't have a good memory. He is the one they expect to save them, to the one who did their plea as they say at the beginning. But we don't know, really, what the true relationship of these three is.
