  • Abstract: This article compares Roger Blin’s concomitant creations of Arthur Adamov’s La Parodie and Samuel Beckett’s En Attendant Godot. Between 1947 and 1953, Roger Blin discovered the new writings of these authors, learned about directing and struggled to find ways of producing. The study of the apparent economic and mental competition between these two plays reveals a slow creative process that is enriched by the interpenetration of the projects.
