What Did You Say What For?

This hilarious dialogue between two lost souls was first performed at Jose Quintero's Director's Seminars in 1958 and then Off Broadway

It is considered the first absurdist drama written or produced in the United States

An extremely excessive "lady" attempts to converse with an aged introvert

Beneath the bizarre dialogue and lunatic fun is a level of human isolation crying out to talk with something that reacts

To be heard and acknowledged

Even though nothing in particular is communicated
