Theatre of the Absurd

The theater of absurdity often depicts characters stuck in absurd and ridiculous situations, where they senselessly try to find the meaning or justification for their existence. Character dialogue can be meaningless or devoid of logic, and scenes can be wild and fantastic.

The works of the theater of absurdity cause a sense of disorientation and bewilderment in the viewer, making him think about the meaning of life and the meaninglessness of being. This direction is often associated with the work of playwrights such as Samuel Beckett, Eugene Ionesco and Harold Pinter.
