The Theatre of the Absurd refers to a style of drama that showcases the absurdity of the human condition and existence. While the name may suggest extreme absurdity, the plays themselves often delve into themes of existentialism, alienation, and the futility of life, rather than being overtly nonsensical.
Critic Martin Esslin is credited with naming the Theatre of the Absurd and used the term to identify playwrights who were embodying Albert Camusâ?? philosophy that life is inherently without meaning. He named Samuel Beckett, Harold Pinter, Jean Genet, Eugene Ionesco and Arthur Adamov as the playwrights representing the Theater of the Absurd.
