"We Haven't Got There Yet" is a fantasy story by Harry Turtledove, published on-line at Tor.com, March 2009. In 1606, William Shakespeare learns of a new play entitled Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead by playwright Tom Stoppard. Shakespeare, angered that someone has plagiarized his Hamlet, attends the play. His initial anger softens as he discovers that he actually quite enjoys what he sees. After bribing his way backstage, he learns from the cast that they were actually in London in 2066 to perform Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead for its centennial, and then suddenly found themselves transported in back in time. As actors, they decide to continue to perform plays written centuries after Shakespeare's death.

When one of the actors, a woman named Jessica who plays Gertrude, recites a poem Shakespeare has not yet written, the Bard flees. Days later, he returns to the theater as the troupe are performing a new play. He enters, wondering who Godot is, and who is waiting for him.
