Enjoyed the concept, didn't so much enjoy Beckett being kind of a douche about everything relating to staging the play and being ridiculously restrictive when it came to alternative interpretations. I've definitely come to appreciate and understand this text more compared to when I first read it three years ago but feel that it's certainly got a bit of a tired message that doesn't allow for a lot of new, interesting ideas to be taken from it.
