In a modern take of Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot, Fail Better follows a conversation between two stoned buddies as they wait for their endlessly late drug dealer. Throughout their intimate back and forth, the two friends share laughs and secrets as they contemplate the meaning of a life well lived.
Baila Eve ‘Bay’ Zisman was born and raised in the Hudson Valley and has known she wanted to be a writer since before she was capable of the act. A graduate of NYU Tisch’s dramatic writing program, her absurdist work often explores life’s subtleties, magnifying their importance day-to-day. In the summer of 2023, she assisted Sydnie Grosberg Ronga in staging The Lifespan of a Fact, at Rosendale Theatre and is delighted to now work with Round The Bend Theatre.
