I've heard mixed things about Shaw...a local actyor that I've worked with a few times was telling me about a production he did of Arms and the Man. The way he described it was that it's brilliant work to read or watch, but absolute torture to perform. Still, I'll have to check him out, I suppose...
Barely even heared of Brecht, but I'll be sure to look into the ones you mentioned.
My school did a production of Bald Soprano last year...I was in another play at the time, but some of my good friends were in it. Very, very cool play. I really enjoyed it and will certainly look in to more Ionesco.
I don't have any excuse for not having read Godot. I loved Endgame, so I'll get on that ASAP.
Thanks for the suggestions - I think my reading list just doubled :)
