Funny but bizarre ( )

یه نمایشنامه‌ی به تمام معنا ابزورد! و چقدر شبیه حال جامعه‌ی ایرانه! خنده‌دار بودن این‌که یک مرد توی مترو روزنامه بخونه! طوطی‌واری جامعه‌ای که به اصطلاح روشنفکره و فقط تقلید از دیگران رو بلده! ( )

Hilarious Theater of the Absurd. Ionesco stages an English as a Second Language text into a social (mis)engagement between the Smiths, the Martins, the Smith's maid Mary & a Fireman. Would love to see it staged, which it has been, almost continuously for more than half a century. ( )
