It's work of deep sadness rather than bitter humour, and beautifully done, even though the vast performing space never quite suggests the play's claustrophobia
My review for The Guardian:-

President Trump:
Hang on, Donald. Word is that a million-man MAGA militia is assembling to save you. The operation is being led by a General Godot. Stay strong. Help is on the way.

Ussher was a regular contributor to the Dublin Magazine and The Bell, a president of the Irish Academy of Letters for twelve years and a correspondent of Samuel #Beckett.
Bio: https://www.dib.ie/biography/ussher-percy-arland-a8776
His mother, Emily Ussher, should also be remembered: from a reforming family (the Judd's), she wrote "The Trail of the Black and Tans" under a pseudonym to highlight to those in Britain the atrocities being committed in their name by the Black and Tans

After years of rejections, Samuel Beckett finally found a publisher for Watt in Paris in 1953. I photographed this copy of the Olympia Press first edition in the window of Shakespeare and Company in spring 2018, along with the reflection of the still-intact Notre-Dame de Paris. #Beckett #Paris #publishing #Shakespeare&Company #NotreDame
