Absurdist Drama is a theatrical movement that emerged in the mid-20th century, characterized by its focus on the illogical and irrational aspects of human existence. It often portrays a world where traditional narratives and structures break down, leaving characters in confusing and meaningless situations. This genre challenges the audience's expectations and reflects the absurdity of life itself. Key playwrights associated with Absurdist Drama include Samuel Beckett, Eugène Ionesco, and Harold Pinter. Their works frequently feature repetitive dialogue, nonsensical actions, and a sense of existential despair, highlighting the futility of human efforts to find meaning in an indifferent universe.
