What effect did the visit of Brecht's Berliner Ensemble to London in August and September 1956 have on the subsequent development of British theatre? Does Epic Theatre still still have an influence today?

What grounds do they have for being the plays that changed the way that people viewed what constituted theatre? Also, Harold Hobson described 'Waiting for Godot' as being as unique as a four-leaf clover or a black tulip. Do you agree?
