Recently we watched " Breathe " the shortest play by Samuel Beckett, to understand the concept of abusrd theater. Absurd means nothing and his play 'Breath' it has nothingness because it is just about thirty seconds, so interpret it is very difficult.
" Nothing is also better than something ".
The play has many concepts like
Nothingness,
Meaninglessness,
Absurdity, and
Existentialism
In the starting we hear the sound of Breath is connected with life and death. While watching play we also feel nausea kind of feelings. We find in the video that it start with dusk and than movies on with down and ends with dusk so as per my point of view writer wants to say that our life start with dusk and also end with dusk than why we running whole life for achieve something but its everything is lying. it also shows cycle of human life.
In the video we find many symbols like
Toys - Shows our childhood
Books - It shows student life
Money - shows struggle, status, royalty
Bottle of medicine - shows illness, old age
This all symbols are related to stage of human life. As per my point of view samuel Beckett connect his play with human life ( Process of life cycle ).
Thank you.....
Well interpreted dear
