본문내용
Albee is the representative playwright of the theater of the absurd. In theater of the absurd, the characters lost their identity and their languages are ruptured and unordered. It is a kind of juxtaposition of scenes. Through juxtaposing chaotic and disordered stories, it shows the meaningless and absurdity of the reality and suggests the attempt to face the human isolation. Albee wants to use these features of the absurd theater to write his plays. According to Amacher, the purpose of the genuine “the theater of the absurd,” as Albee sees it, is “to make a man face up to the human condition as it really is … (31)”. Through the theater, he wants to describe the real human life and show the internal human mind. Albee represents the isolation of modern people through The Zoo Story.
