Item Description

Make yours the winning bid to take home this exciting piece of contemporary theater memorabilia SIGNED by two of the greatest actors of our generation, Sir Patrick Stewart and Sir Ian McKellen. The Barnes family has generously donated this item that comes directly from the backstage of the New York production of Waiting for Godot, a play by Samuel Becket and directed for this performance by Sean Mathias.  It is truly priceless!

Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart are starring on Broadway in a limited season repertoire of Harold Pinter’s No Man’s Land and Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot, directed by Sean Mathias.

Internationally acclaimed for their performances on stage, screen and television, McKellen ("Estragon/Spooner") and Stewart ("Vladimir/Hirst") return to Broadway playing in a rotating schedule of two of the most iconic plays of the 20th Century.  Distinguished actors Billy Crudup ("Foster/Lucky") and Shuler Hensley ("Briggs/Pozzo") co-star.

Waiting for Godot played a critically acclaimed, sold-out run in London’s West End in 2009. Prior to Broadway, No Man’s Land played Berkeley Rep in summer 2013.

Designs for the productions include sets and costumes by Stephen Brimson Lewis (twice Tony-nominated for Indiscretions) and lighting by Peter Kaczorowski (a Tony Award winner for Contact and The Producers).
