The Stratford Festival’s Opening Week wrapped up last night with director Molly Atkinson’s production of Samuel Beckett’s WAITING FOR GODOT at the Festival Theatre.

Keeley as Estragon, Vladimir, Pozzo, and Lucky – but even as I sit here reflecting on the performances, I find myself continuing to reflect (in a good way) on the absurd profundity of ‘nothing’ happening.
