Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category 20th Century Theater) for Monday, December 27, 2021 (Season 38, Game 76):
In 1955 Peter Hall directed the first production of this play in English without having “the foggiest idea what some of it means”
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s contestants:
Donna Lettow, a digital accessibility specialist from Baltimore, Maryland
Ashley Castle, an antiques dealer from West Pawlet, Vermont
Amy Schneider, an engineering manager from Oakland, California (18-day total: $706,800)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts: Last week, Amy Schneider became the winningest woman (in terms of overall winnings, including tournaments) in Jeopardy! history. If she wins through to Wednesday, she’ll become the winningest woman (in terms of games) in Jeopardy! history. Will this last week of Jeopardy! of 2021 be fruitful for Amy? Or will Ashley and Donna have something to say about that?
PSA: The best way to keep COVID-19 at bay (and keep Jeopardy! producing new episodes) is for everybody to get their vaccinations as soon as they are able to, including any boosters as recommended. When wearing a mask, please ensure that your mask covers both your nose and your mouth.

Correct response: What is Waiting for Godot?
More information about Final Jeopardy: (The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2021 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)
Waiting for Godot is Samuel Beckett’s famous play where Vladimir and Estragon wait and have discussions while waiting for Godot. One of the most famous examples of Theatre of the Absurd, it was originally written in French but translated to English soon thereafter by Beckett. Peter Hall, when producing the first English-language staging of the play in 1955, also famously said to the cast, “if we stop and discuss every line we’ll never open.” Beckett also had objections to women-only casts performing the play, though courts generally overruled those objections (those objections have been subjects of Final Jeopardy! in the past.)
