Well sure, but we've got one that's done ENDGAME and KRAPP'S LAST TAPE so we're golden.

Don't you have to bury a penguin up to his neck for one of those?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
We can just usher some penguins onto stage sets and then dub in the voices later.
Why not just do a translation?

ESTRAGON: Then we can't.

For ENDGAME you'd need a couple of penguins in trash cans, but the emporer would be sittig in a chair for the whole thing.

This all reminds me of a bunch of different Monty Python sketches. The Semaphore Version of Wuthering Heights. David Copperfield as adapted for a parrot viewing audience.
