Eastern absurd plays, human chord: Rajeshwar Prasad's pioneering stage

Author(s):

Bhagwati Prasad

Abstract:

Rajeshwar Prasad effects a significant transformation of Absurdist Theatre, advancing further than the stage of reading or interpretation. His plays utilise radical economy, pioneering the Absurdist formula of the Theatre of the Absurd - (aclp2t) + (afi2lms) + (tc) to present us with the full emotional impact of communicating an existentially stagnant angst by turning it into a story that is implicitly profoundly human. As a pioneering voice, Prasad has brought Absurdism onto the stage, moving beyond sterile thought to comprise those things that represent the most vivid and unforgettable human aspects of vulnerability and the raw quest to find meaning in a world that appears indifferent.
