摘　　要：风靡世界50年的独幕剧《动物园的故事》被剧作家爱德华·阿尔比改编成两幕戏《在家在动物园》,这无疑是西方戏剧发展史上不多见的事件。作为荒诞派戏剧,它不同于尤奈斯库、贝克特、品特等人的叙事风格,碎片化的语言和独白型的叙事形式阻断了人物之间的交流,使戏剧人物之间无论在物理空间还是在心理空间都存在着一种距离感。戏剧结构的重新编排增加了社会容量,也扩大了戏剧的视野,强化了中产阶级美国梦破灭的主题,体现了美国荒诞派戏剧在展示荒诞的同时转向社会政治意图和意识形态的特点。One-act play The Zoo Story has been popular in the world for 50 years and was adapted into two-act play At Home at the Zoo by playwright Edward Albee.It is undoubtedly an innovative event in the development history of Western drama.As the theater of the absurd,it is different from the narrative styles of Eugene Ionesco,Samuel Beckett,Harold Pinter,etc.The fragmented language and monologue narrative form blocks the communication between characters to lead to a sense of distance in both physical space and psychological space.The reorganization of drama structure increases the social capacity,broadens the horizon of the drama,strengthens the theme of the disillusionment of the American dream of the middle-class,and reflects the turning of American theater of absurd to socio-political intentions and ideology while displaying the absurdity.
