Eugène Ionesco was a Romanian-French playwright, one of the main representatives of the Theatre of the Absurd.
His work is characterized by illogicality, the breakdown of language, and the exploration of the emptiness of human existence, reflecting the anguish and absurdity of the modern world. Plays such as "The Bald Soprano" and "Rhinoceros" are milestones of 20th-century theatre.
