Mens vi venter på Godot, the Danish title of Samuel Beckett's play Waiting for Godot, is staged in Copenhagen at Teatret ved Sorte Hest. The production is performed by Hestespil in the theatre's Teater-salen and runs from 30 January to 13 March 2027.
What to expect
Beckett's play is a study in waiting, conversation and the small routines that fill time when nothing seems to happen. A visit to this production is an evening in a theatre rather than a sightseeing stop, so it suits those who enjoy live drama and are happy to sit with a slow, thoughtful piece of writing.
The venue
- Teatret ved Sorte Hest, an independent theatre in Copenhagen
- Performance in the Teater-salen, the theatre's main stage
- Presented by the company Hestespil
Planning your visit
The run stretches over several weeks, so you have time to choose an evening that suits you. Current dates, times and tickets are listed on the theatre's website, where the production page gives the full details. Copenhagen's city centre is within reach of the venue, which makes it easy to pair the performance with a meal or a walk before or after the show.
