Goodman and Lane Headline "Waiting for Godot"

Nathan Lane, John Goodman, Bill Irwin and David Strathairn will all star in a Broadway revival of Waiting for Godot next year.

The Roundabout Theatre Company will stage the renowned absurdist play by Samuel Beckett at Studio 54 beginning April 30, the Associated Press reports. Anthony Page, who helmed the 2005 revival of Who's Afraid of Virigina Woolf?, which won Irwin a Tony, will direct.

Waiting for Godot tells the tale of two apparently homeless men, Vladimir (Irwin) and Estragon (Lane) waiting for someone named Godot. Pozzo (Goodman) and his slave, Lucky (Strathairn), encounter the pair as they wait.

All four actors boast previous stage credits. Goodman has appeared in Big River and Loose Ends, while Strathairn, best known for his roles in Good Night, and Good Luck and The Bourne Ultimatum, recently performed in Conversations at Tusculum at the Public Theater. Lane recently acted in November and was inducted into the Theater Hall of Fame this year. Irwin, in addition to several other credits, played Lucky in an earlier revival of the play in 1988.
