Harold Pinter’s The Birthday Party is a absurd play and as we all know that he introduce here very significant style of Comedy of Menace. It can be seen as different way like some elements of laughter and some elements that turns into the horrifying way. As we can also see in some movies like, ‘The enemy’, ‘Cross Roads’. That how situation makes change.
This play shows the effect upon the readers to what to understand and what to observed by the character. It reminds the psycho thinking also as we recall the E.A. Poe. Let me introduce some facts that will make idea clear about the character’s horrifying elements, in the play, Goldberg asks Stanley about his childhood, but Stanley is unresponsive. Petey leaves for a game of chess with friends, and McCann follows to buy alcohol for the party. Stanley and Goldberg are left alone in the room. Goldberg, at ease, makes small talk, but Stanley won’t listen. Instead, he tells Goldberg there has been some kind of mistake that the boardinghouse has no rooms left for them and so they must leave. Goldberg smoothly changes the subject to birthdays, comparing them to waking up in the morning. He says some people know how to appreciate the wonder of waking up, while others act as if they are corpses waiting to be washed.   

Passionately the problem is accruing in the play as mentioned in the sense of thinking. But as we also connect it with some danger in the play and also questioning the situation that what the viewers can convey after observing the play?  Answer will be different per head.
