Brandon J. Dirden said Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter maintained a childlike, playful energy while performing "Waiting for Godot." Dirden, nominated for a Tony Award for his role as Pozzo, described Reeves and Winter's backstage conversations as "ridiculous" and "adolescent teenage boy talk," which helped lighten the play's heavy themes. The Broadway revival of Samuel Beckett's "Waiting for Godot" ran from September 28, 2025, to January 4, 2026, at the Hudson Theatre.
