GENRE: absurd comedy

SYNOPSIS: Absurd actions seem banal and ordinary, but with a specific text, they create an interesting, structured and pseudo-philosophical collage. The play has no plot although certain features link the six scenes together. All six scenes challenge the conventional perception of reality. At first glance, banal situations become absurd due to the meaningless text or its repetition. It is an experiment with dramatic form and meaning. In the first scene, the characters play with sounds, words, actions of their own body and with the meanings of words. The second scene is a discussion or argument on the topic: “What is absurd?” The third scene comprises endless and exaggerated encouragement, until the person grasps it. The fourth scene is about an unusual recipe for a cake. The fifth scene is about observing an unknown object. The sixth scene is an endlessly prolonged moment of encounter between two people.
