Theatre of the Absurd
Theatre of the Absurd is a drama without a plot, without characters, and without dialogue in the conversational sense. The main action relates in showing the absurdity of man’s existence. This drama exposes soul’s agony and meaninglessness of life. Absurd theatre relies heavily on dream and fantasy. The theatre of Absurd is one of the ways of facing up to a universe that has lost faith in God  and has lost it’s meaning and purpose. It plays the role of satirical and criticizes  a society that is petty and dishonest, such a theater in involved in the relatively few problems that remain life, death, isolation and communication. In such a theatre language is devalued. The drama speaks to a deeper level of the audience’s mind. We find it very difficult to identify ourselves with the characters in Absurd drama. The theatre of the Absurd presents anxiety, despair and a sense of loss at the disappearance of solutions, illusions, and purposefulness. Thus absurd drama becomes a kind of modern mystical experience.

Pozzo and Lucky had been together for sixty years .He remains completely faithful to to Pozzo. He has always been the intellectually superior. Pozzo credits him with having given him all the culture refinement and ability to reason that he possesses. Pozzo controls him by means of an extremely long rope which he jerks and tug if Lucky is the least bit slow. In second act when Pozzo   has iexplicably gone blind and needs to be led by Lucky rather than driving as he had done before .
Above all the discussion it comes clear that Lucky is a faithful slave of Pozzo,he bears so many good qualities.
