Waiting for Godot

Tragicomedy by Samuel Beckett (1955). Vladimir and Estragon wait on a country road for the arrival of Godot. Twice the domineering Pozzo and the oppressed Lucky appear, and a boy brings news that Godot will come tomorrow rather than today. Apart from these incidents, there is no plot, the play's interest being in the quirky resilience of the main characters in the face of an inexplicable and arbitrary universe.
