Summary	The Emeritus Professor of Drama at Kingston University, Colin Chambers, provides an introduction to Theatre of Absurd - a label created to define the experimental theatre of the 1950s. Referring to the works of key practitioners, Chambers considers how absurd playwrights rejected dominant forms of theatrical storytelling and aimed to express disillusionment at the loss of a stable set of ideas.
