The Millennium Forum in Derry is to host Samuel Beckett’s classic play Waiting for Godot.
Described as an “anarchic meditation” on the meaning of life and death, the 60-year-old masterpiece is being brought the Derry venue for two nights next week by London Classic Theatre artistic director Michael Cabot.
Part allegory, part burlesque, Beckett’s unique, timeless play moves seamlessly between absurdist comic sketch and captivating philosophical drama.
Waiting for Godot was first produced in at the Arts Theatre, London in 1955, directed by Sir Peter Hall.
In 1999, it was voted the most significant English language play of the 20th century.
The play will perform at the Forum on Tuesday and Wednesday next, 27 and 28 October.
Tickets available from the Box Office, telephone 71 264455 or visit www.millenniumforum.co.uk for bookings.
