Abbas Nalbandian (Template:Lang-fa) (1947-28 May 1987) was an Iranian playwright who wrote several absurdist plays in 60s and 70s. His plays had very long and strange names. For example his first play was “A deep, big and new research about fossils of 25th genealogy period, or 20th, or any other period, there is no difference” (1966 ). This play is about some confused and exhausted people who are in a dark and unknown place. They are five men and three women. They seek for things or people who had vital effects on their lives. But they don’t know how to find them and what to do. And then they decide to choose a leader, but nobody accepts to be their leader.
Nalbandian was under the effects of European absurdist theatre and he tried to bring new ideas and methods from European drama into Iranian drama. He committed suicide on 28 May 1987. He recorded his voice in the time of dying.^[1]
