This work contains three chapters; the first chapter deals with theoretical backgrounds of the study such as: absurdism, existentialism, theatre of the absurd and irony. As for the second and the third chapter; it comes out as an analytical study. The second chapter is divided into two parts; the first part deals with patterns of absurdity in Waiting for Godot. This absurdity is found in the title, setting, structure, characters, action and dialogue. The second part tackles absurdity in The Lesson in terms of characters, setting and dialogue.
