What is the structure of "Waiting for Godot"?
"Waiting for Godot" is structured into two acts featuring two main characters, Vladimir and Estragon, who wait for the mysterious Godot. The play is marked by its minimalist setting—a single tree on an empty road—and cyclical dialogues that emphasize the repetitiveness and futility of existence. The absence of traditional plot progression and resolution underscores the absurdist themes.
