Description
Godot is a Woman by Silent Faces Theatre A play about waiting has been a cornerstone of modern theatre for nearly seven decades. Written in 1953, it has sparked controversy and debate ever since. In recent years, the question of who can truly play the roles of Didi and Gogo has become increasingly pressing. Silent Faces Theatre's Godot is a Woman offers a fresh perspective on this timeless issue. Penned with their trademark playful, political style, the book explores themes of permission, the patriarchy, and pop music. With its richly comic tone, it will have you laughing all evening - but be prepared to argue long into the night. A tour de force that challenges our assumptions about representation in theatre, Godot is a Woman is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the performing arts.
