Waiting for Waiting for Godot
by Tony Binns

Two suburban women have a very Beckett-like examination of their lives while waiting for a production of Waiting for Godot.

Directed by Brian Deedrick and read by Lora Brovold, Belinda Cornish, Collin Doyle and Neil Kuefler.

Tony Binns is a veteran stand-up comic, sketch comedian and screenwriter who has been attempting to coast on charm since roughly 1988. His movie #Roxy won both a Kidscreen award and an Ampia award for Best Picture, and his writing has been featured on Cartoon Network’s Fuggetabout it, as well as local favorites Tiny Plastic Men and Truckstop Bloodsuckers. His interests include trying to convince his long-suffering wife to watch professional wrestling with him, and writing about himself in the third person. He is absolutely delighted to venture back into the world of theatre with Waiting for Waiting for Godot, which was a finalist in the Alberta Playwriting Competition.
