Wikipedia says…

Waiting for Godot (the proper name correctly pronounced "GO-doh" /'gɒ.dəʊ/, stressing the first syllable in contrast to the syllabically even stress typical of Standard French pronunciation) is a play by Samuel Beckett, in which two characters wait for someone named Godot, who never arrives. Godot's absence, as well as numerous other aspects of the play, have led to many different interpretations since the play's premiere. Voted "the most significant English language play of the 20th century", Waiting for Godot is Beckett's translation of his own original French version, En attendant Godot, and is subtitled (in English only), "a tragicomedy in two acts". The original French text was written "between 9 October 1948 and 29 January 1949 [...] after Molloy and Malone Meurt but before L’Innommable." The premiere was on the 23 January 1953 in the Théâtre de Babylone with Roger Blin as the director who also played Pozzo.
