Godot

Godot is a Woman, Pleasance Theatre

GODOT IS A WOMAN | Pleasance Theatre Trust

by Zahid Fayyaz

It’s third time lucky for this performance piece at the Pleasance Theatre, having been previously programmed and then postponed twice due to the UK’s two lockdowns. It very much turns out to be worth the wait however, as this is a fascinating and thought provoking show.
