The Coming of Godot: A Short History of a Masterpiece

by Jonathan Croall, Peter Hall (Preface)

Fifty years ago Sir Peter Hall directed the English world premiere of Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot. Now he has returned to this quintessential absurdist piece that has become one of the most important works of modern drama. Jonathan Croall combines an account of this theatrical journey with an informative history of the play.
