"Waiting for Godot" is a play by Samuel Beckett that centers on two characters, Vladimir and Estragon, who wait for someone named Godot. Their dialogue meanders as they pass time, highlighting existential themes such as despair, hope, and the meaning of life. The play unfolds in a minimalist setting, emphasizing the absurdity of their situation and the uncertainty of Godot's arrival, which never happens, leaving audiences to contemplate the nature of waiting itself.
