Waiting for Godot

At the Hudson Theatre, *Waiting for Godot* arrives in musical form, reshaping Samuel Beckett’s mid-century tragicomedy into a live stage score. Two men wait by a lonely roadside for someone who never appears, filling the time with routines, arguments, and fleeting hopes as days seem to repeat. Since its early New York productions helped introduce American audiences to the Theater of the Absurd, the work has remained a downtown-to-Broadway touchstone. Its lasting force is how it turns waiting itself into the subject.
