    Abstract
    This essay considers the construction and reception of Waiting for Godot in British regional repertory theatre between 1956 and the early 1970s, arguing that the disruptive potential of the play, as registered by the London reviewers, was recontextualised, and for some time largely contained, by the framing of the play within the repertory system and its associated discourses. Résumé Cet essai étudie l’ interprétation et l’ accueil d’En attendant Godot dans le théâtre de répertoire régional en Grande Bretagne entre 1956 et le début des années 1970. L’ article avance l’ hypothèse que le potentiel novateur de la pièce, bien repéré par les critiques londoniens, a été recontextualisé et, pendant quelque temps, largement contenu par l’ encadrement de la pièce au sein du système de théâtre de répertoire et des discours qui lui sont associés.
