Ugh. That has to be the most boring play I've sat through. Granted it was a college production, but it was just awful.
That being said, I do have recommendations. :D I did like Waiting for Godot, though.
Probably, my most favorite play is Arsenic & Old Lace by Joseph Kesselring. It's a farcical black comedy about these two old ladies who perform "charity work" by bumping off lonely old men. Their brother thinks he's Teddy Rosevelt and they have two nephews, one of which looks like "Boris Karloff". The other one is the only sane person of the bunch.
There is also Tom Stoppard's Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead. It's Hamlet told from the perspective of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern and it's also rather funny and very Waiting for Godot-esque. Though, you have to finish reading Hamlet first, otherwise this won't make a lot of sense. ;)
