This collection includes the translation, for the first time in Greek, of a significant—though overlooked—one-act play by Samuel Beckett titled "Rough for Theatre II".

Additionally, it contains five essays that explore certain key points of the discourse concerning the transition from modern to postmodern theatre, with parallel references to other forms of art.

From the baroque naturalism of Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio to the realism of Henrik Ibsen, from Samuel Beckett's Theatre of the Absurd, which embodies a transitional literary figure between modernism and postmodernism, to performance arts such as those of The Living Theater or Marina Abramović, culminating in the idiosyncratic magical realism of Terry Gilliam.
