An extensive Learning Guide is available to support your visit to the theatre, which is designed to enhance students’ exploration and understanding of the play and this 2024 production.

The guide includes written and visual resources to help Drama, Theatre and Performing Arts students. It contains historical context on Beckett and Waiting for Godot, interviews with the cast and creative team, and prompts to inspire students’ own devising, performing and designing projects. The guide also provides extensive details to support students’ work on live production reviews.

Education material created by Susie Ferguson, in conjunction with the cast and creative team.

This Learning Guide wouldn’t have been possible without the generous support of Access Entertainment.
