The New Tenant (Template:Langx) is a play written by Eugène Ionesco in 1953, [1] translated by Donald Watson in 1956,[2] It premiered in 1955 in Lilla Teatern in Helsinki, Finland, directed by Vivica Bandler.[3]

The central image is common to many Ionesco plays: something accumulates on stage and overwhelms the characters. In this case its furniture. The main characters are a gentleman, a caretaker, and two movers. The caretaker talks as the gentleman, the "new tenant" of the title, directs the two movers who continuously bring in furniture.
