Why is absurdity anti-traditional?

Absurd drama accepted the basic ideas of literary concepts and expressions such as existentialism philosophy and surrealism, and merged them, thus forming its own unique style and pushing absurd literature to the peak. It should be said that the absurd drama is basically the same as the existential literature headed by Sartre and Camus, but the difference is that the absurd drama has chosen a unique form of expression, which is the main reason why they can exist as an independent drama school. Absurd plays express absurd contents in absurd forms, such as grotesque, vague, morbid and ugly characters, if there is no plot, the stage setting that deviates from common sense, and the upside-down and nonsense drama dialogue. This grotesque technique appropriately expresses the absurd theme, and also makes this school appear in world literature with its anti-drama, anti-literature and avant-garde posture, becoming a unique and influential drama school.
