Why should you read "Waiting for Godot"?

Title:
Why should you read "Waiting for Godot"?
Speaker:
Iseult Gillespie
Description:

Two men, Estragon and Vladimir, meet by a tree at dusk to wait for someone named "Godot." So begins a vexing cycle where the two debate when Godot will come, why they're waiting and whether they're even at the right tree. The play offers a simple but stirring question- what should the characters do? Iseult Gillespie shares everything you need to know to read the tragicomedy.
