“…Godot” is set on a desolate back road, empty of almost everything. A barren tree is all that helps to fill the emptiness. We will be presenting the show in the round on the pavilion floor.
This is a somewhat physical show. There is falling, kicking and jumping about throughout the show.
Click here to go to the "Waiting for Godot" show page.
April 13, 14, 20 & 21, 2012. All performances begin at 8 PM.
Rehearsals will be Tuesdays, Thursdays & Sundays. Time will be determined to work within the cast and facilities availability.
Even though the roles are written as men we are open to casting the show genderless, for any or all of the parts.
Vladimir and Estragon: A pair of once respectable men, now homeless, in need of assistance. As they wait for Godot, their hopeful savior, they discuss subjects from the crucifixion to suicide. The pair are almost interchangeable on the outside.
Vladimir (Didi) is the caretaker and more optimistic.
Estragon (Gogo) is depressed and looks to the bleakness of their existence.
Pozzo: Pozzo is a land owner, member of the gentry. Age 30 to 80. Pozzo has many sides and we can assume that we don’t see them all. Bold, brash and self confident in the first act; blind, weak and helpless in the second.
Lucky: The Mute. Age is impossible to determine. The servant of Pozzo. Lucky is driven like a horse (or leads) by Pozzo on a long rope. This is a role for acting without speaking.
Boy: A messenger from Godot. Age 8 to 16. This role is small and will require limited rehearsals.
