Waiting for Godot

Written by Samuel Beckett · Directed by Jamie Lloyd

Keanu Reeves, in his Broadway debut, and Alex Winter reunited for Jamie Lloyd’s staging of Beckett’s play. Vladimir and Estragon pass the days waiting for a man named Godot who never comes, crossing paths with the domineering Pozzo and his servant Lucky. Brandon J. Dirden earned a 2026 Tony Award nomination as Pozzo, and Soutra Gilmour’s set was nominated for a Drama Desk Award.
