Kate Horton for Fictionhouse, Len Blavatnik and Danny Cohen for Access Entertainment, in association with Kate Pakenham Productions today announce an additional week of performances for Waiting for Godot at Theatre Royal Haymarket, now running until 21 December 2024. Directed by James Macdonald, starring Lucian Msamati and Ben Whishaw, Waiting For Godot opened at Theatre Royal Haymarket on 19 September.
Didi and Gogo wait by a tree for a man named Godot. They don’t know who he is, why they are meeting or what time he is coming – only that something incredible could happen when he does…
“Let us do something, while we have the chance… at this place, at this moment of time, all mankind is us, whether we like it or not. Let us make the most of it before it is too late!”
Don’t miss the play that changed the rules.
The cast is joined by Luca Fone, Alexander Joseph and Ellis Pang sharing the role of The Boy and Dean Graham (Understudy Vladimir and Lucky) and David Lee-Jones (Understudy Estragon and Pozzo).
