Answer
Yes, "The Bald Soprano" holds the distinction of being Eugène Ionesco's maiden theatrical venture. Written in 1948, it marked his debut as a playwright and set the stage for his subsequent contributions to Theatre of the Absurd movement. With its nonsensical dialogue and unconventional structure, "The Bald Soprano" challenged traditional dramatic conventions and paved the way for Ionesco's exploration of existential themes and the absurdity of human communication.
