Harold Pinter is one of most dominant playwrights of second half of the nineteen century. His plays are belonged to absurd theatre. His entire plays pervades by ‘an ever-present anxiety, a sense that nothing is certain’ always. The seemingly meaningless conversation of his dramatic dialogue reveals sense of absurd atmosphere, but the absurdity of his dialogue has more and deeper consideration, fundamental privilege of existence of his taciturn characters. The present paper is an attempt to analysis the dialogue in Harold Pinter’s The Birthday Party. The analysis of dialogue is based on the on book of Mick Willis and Simon Shepherd’s Studying Plays. They have mentioned five functions of dialogue in their book. An analysis of these five functions of his dialogue can give more meaning and interpretation to his use of ordinary human conversations.
