Waiting for Godot Tickets and Dates

"The best staging of this classic I've ever seen" (Evening Standard)

The wait is finally over as Waiting For Godot is now open in the West End.

Starring Lucian Msamati (Game of Thrones) and Ben Whishaw (Paddington) alongside Tom Edden (Crazy For You) and Jonathan Slinger (title roles in Richard II and Richard III in RSC Histories) in this landmark new production of Samuel Beckett’s towering masterpiece Waiting For Godot.

Directed by multi award-winner James Macdonald (Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, Cock, Infinite Life, Escaped Alone), this production is "sharply fresh, exquisitely detailed and beautifully timed" (Financial Times).

Didi and Gogo wait by a tree for a man named Godot. They don’t know who he is or why they are meeting—only that something incredible could happen when he arrives.

This "utterly compelling" (The Times) and "tremendous" (Daily Telegraph) production of Waiting For Godot is taken "to a whole new level" (Evening Standard).

Witty and absurd, poignant and profound, Beckett’s masterpiece remains one of the defining works of the 20th century.

Don’t miss this strictly limited run at the historic Theatre Royal Haymarket, now playing until December.
