For more than half a century, Waiting for Godot has enthralled and baffled theatre-goers in equal measure. Why did Beckett's first play have such an impact on post-war British drama? What was this famously elusive playwright trying to tell us in his two-act tragi-comedy about a pair of tramps? Drawing on what critics have said about Godot over the years, the Oxford academic Sophie Ratcliffe puts Beckett s masterpiece in perspective and crisply analyses what makes it so compelling.
