In an earlier interview with Chin, she had expressed the hopes of people who came to watch the play, and then they could apply what they saw to their modern day lives. The play is from theater of the absurd, which consists of main- ly 1950s European playwrights. The viewer can take the play in several different ways, but the main theme in Ionesco’s play was conformity.
