Absurd theatre is a dramatic genre that emerged in France in the 1950s. This movement is often associated with the works of Eugène Ionesco, Samuel Beckett, and Harold Pinter, although other authors have also contributed to its development. Absurd theatre is characterized by a portrayal of the human condition as devoid of meaning. Reduced to archetypes and lacking any psychological depth, characters are confronted with illogical and inexplicable situations. Communication between characters seems to be challenging. The action is not driven by a traditional narrative structure; situations are repetitive, and dialogues are often disjointed.
