In the organizer's words:
Director: Luk Perceval
Berliner Ensemble
Two homeless people in an indeterminable landscape and an uncertain time. They talk expectantly about the day to come and desperately search for shared memories from the past; their present consists of nothing but waiting. To endure the torture of waiting and not being able to leave, they devote themselves to the game. If Beckett had known what this couple was waiting for, he would not have written the play, he once replied.
What are we waiting for? And what games do we invent to pass the time and exist without awareness in our present?
"Waiting for Godot" is the second and best-known play by Irish Nobel Prize winner Samuel Beckett, premiered in Paris in 1953 and is considered an epoch-making work of the century and a central text of the Theater of the Absurd. The work of the writer, who was born in Dublin in 1906, also includes essays, prose and films.
It will be staged by the renowned Belgian director Luk Perceval. He is particularly interested in the comedy and cruelty contained in this universal comedy of humanity. He is developing Beckett's modern classic together with a fantastic ensemble around Paul Herwig and Matthias Brandt.
