As a result of the brilliant performance of the young actors and the simple and modest reading of the play this "Godot" was a success. Directors didn't impose their interpretations of the text by giving the answers to the major questions of "who or what is Godot". They just staged the play as it is: a series of situations that the actors-characters (internally called "charactors") create in order to kill time in the most pleasing way for themselves as well as the audience. The scenography in the spirit of constructivism, created exclusively from stage platforms, provided a perfect playground for the game.  The "charactors" are very much aware of the audience; this simple awareness culminates near the end in an interaction with the audience. 

"The guts to interpret Waiting for Godot in this way has moved the jury deeply. In spite of the linguistic barrier we were swept along and moved by the character’s madness andhopelessness. The unexpected caesura in the performance was arresting and exciting." From the nomination for the IT's Festival Guest Award in Amsterdam 2012.
