Eugène Ionesco, born Eugen Ionescu (November 26, 1909 - March 29, 1994), was a Romanian and French playwright and dramatist, one of the foremost playwrights of the Theatre of the Absurd . Beyond ridiculing the most banal situations, Ionesco's plays depict in a tangible way the solitude of humans and the insignificance of one's existence.
