Waiting for Godot | Athens | April 18 – May 13

Tickets cost 15 euros from more.com/theater/waitingforgodot/.
“Waiting for Godot” stands as a masterpiece of modern existential theatre, delving into profound themes through the perspectives of protagonists Estragon and Vladimir. Trapped in a perpetual cycle of waiting for a mysterious figure, the characters navigate loneliness, dependency, and the relentless pursuit of meaning in a world devoid of certainty. Beckett’s skillful weaving of symbolism challenges audiences to confront the enigma of existence, pondering the fundamental question, “Who am I?”
Featuring an eclectic international and Greek cast, this bold production injects fresh energy and innovation into the 20th century’s most pivotal theatrical work.
