Poster for a 1993 production of the play "Die Stühle" (The Chairs) by Eugène Ionesco at the Maxim Gorki Theater. "The Chairs (French: Les Chaises) is a 1952 one-act absurdist play by Eugène Ionesco, a "tragic farce" about an elderly couple on a remote island who host an increasing number of invisible guests, filling their room with empty chairs to convey the old man's life's message, which ultimately ends in their suicides and the orator's failure to communicate the message, highlighting themes of isolation, the meaninglessness of life, and the futility of human communication."
