Ah. I'm familiar with absurdist theater and Ionesco; my theater director back in high school was an Ionesco fan, and we did a couple of his short plays for the annual one-act state drama festivals during my tenure as a theater geek. I played the lead in Frenzy for Two and The Lesson, both of which were received by the state festival judges with magnificent ambivalence while the prizes went to warm-n-fuzzy folksy-charming one-act musicals put on by other schools. It was my first foray into bitter, misunderstood artistic snubbedness. :)
