About The Event
The Chairs unfolds in a room that gradually fills—with chairs, with
anticipation, with voices that are never heard. What begins as a simple act of
preparation becomes an ever-expanding event, where presence is invoked without
arrival.
Written within the tradition of the Theatre of the Absurd, the play does not move
toward resolution, but toward accumulation. Chairs multiply, guests are
announced, conversations intensify—yet nothing stabilises into certainty.
Language falters, meaning slips, and communication reveals its fragile
architecture.
Yet this is not a void of despair. There is playfulness, tenderness, even a strange
celebration. The absurd here is not merely comic or tragic—it is a condition of
being, where the human desire to be seen, heard, and remembered persists
against the silence that surrounds it.
