THEATRE OF THE ABSURD – INTRODUCTION AND FEATURES
Journal Title: GJRA-Global Journal For Research Analysis - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 4
Abstract
'The Theatre of the Absurd' as a catch-phrase is much used and much abused. However, there is no organized movement, no school of artists, who claim the label for themselves. A good many playwrights who have been classed under this label, when asked if they belong to the Theatre of the Absurd, will indignantly reply that they belong to no such movement - and quite rightly so. For each of the playwrights concerned seeks to express no more and no less than his own personal vision of the world. The Theatre of the Absurd expresses what happens when human existence loses its meaning and purpose. With that, communication breaks down, leading to illogical arguments and construction giving way to illogical and irrational speech and dialogues. The result is silence. The absurd plays insist on the audience/readers not to follow this and have logical conversations, otherwise all the conversations will break down and illogical silence will prevail.
