With the appearance of Waiting for Godot at the Théâtre de Babylone in Paris in 1953, the literary world was shaken by the arrival of a drama so different and yet so compelling that it gave rise to the "Theatre of the Absurd". His contribution to this particular type of theatrical movement allows us to define him as the father of the genre. Although other playwrights, such as Tom Stoppard, also contributed to this genre, Beckett remains its unique and highest figure. It is this type of theater that addresses the absurd aspects of life, to underline its native senselessness. It is time and the identity of the characters that are usually vague or ambiguous in these plays of the theater of the absurd. The plays are dreamy and impossible to implement in real life and the dialogues of such plays are irrational and make the play seem absurd because the entire structure of the play is in repetition. In this work, Samuel Beckett emphasizes human suffering. The play mainly revolves around Estragon and Vladimir waiting endlessly for something to help them overcome their boredom and sins because they seek redemption, as mentioned in the play. Godot can be taken as one of the many desires that Vladimir and Estragon await. Waiting for Godot is part of the 'Theatre of the Absurd'. This implies that it is meant to be irrational and useless in nature as you do not have a proper moral and conclusion to the work, i.e. it is an open-ended work. Readers and audiences can draw many conclusions towards the end of the show. The concepts of drama, chronological plot, logical language, recognizable themes and settings are characteristics of drama that a play of the Theater of the Absurd does not have. Let's see how the characters of Vladimir and Estrago......middle of paper......s with their incoherent conversation. And most importantly, its theme is inexplicable, which means that the work does not have a single theme like adventure or action. “Waiting for Godot” is an absurd work because it lacks characterization and motivation. Although the characters are present but they are not recognizable by whatever they do and whatever they present is purposeless. Works Cited Beckett, Samuel. Waiting for Godot. 3rd ed.
