A profound exploration of humanity\u00a0<\/em><\/h5>\n

Beneath a lonely tree on a country road, two companions wait for the mysterious Godot. As time moves along, Vladimir and Estragon fill their day circling the largest of questions: Why are we here? What are we here for? Who are we to be? Samuel Beckett\u2019s\u00a0tragicomedy\u00a0uses wit and poignant dialogue to create an existential world that is both humorous and heartbreaking. Staged at\u00a0the Guthrie\u00a0for the first time in over 50 years, this seminal play explores the human impulses to want more, to understand why and to keep showing up \u2014 even when nothing seems to change.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
