Episode #173 ... Simone Weil - The Need for Roots

Samuel Beckett's "Waiting for Godot" is a seminal work of absurdist theatre. The play features two tramps, Vladimir and Estragon, who wait endlessly for the enigmatic Mr. Godot, whose arrival is perpetually delayed. Beckett's minimalist style and his exploration of existential themes have made the play a cornerstone of modern drama. The play's ambiguous nature and its exploration of meaninglessness and the human condition continue to resonate with audiences today. "Waiting for Godot" remains a powerful and thought-provoking work that challenges conventional notions of narrative and dramatic structure.
