Waiting for Godot (pdf) has been called one of the most important plays of the twentieth century, or a play where nothing really happens, twice.
The setting of this unusual play is on a back road, under a leafless tree.
There, where two men, Vladimir and Estragon, await the appearance of a man named Godot. In order to pass the time, the two men talk about an assortment of subjects, including how they spent the previous evening (Vladimir spent his night in a trench being whipped by various individuals), how the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ is portrayed in the four Gospels, and even having a discussion of whether they should hang themselves from the leafless tree.
The play is frequently deciphered as a portrayal of the inconsequential, uninteresting, and dull nature of modern life, which is often lived fully expecting something which never appears. It is always just over the horizon, around the corner, later on, or showing up ‘tomorrow’.
