| − | Jack, or The Submission (French: Jacques ou la soumission) is an absurd play by Eugène Ionesco, the first of two (the second being The Future is in Eggs) about Jack and his family, all of whom are named after Jack (Father-Jack, Mother Jack, etc.).

| − | The thrust of the narrative involves Jack's arranged marriage to Roberta and, when the first Roberta is not satisfactory, Roberta II. The play contains nonsensical exchanges and strings of clichés, similar to The Bald Soprano and the sort of surreal conceits (Roberta's multiple noses, for example) common in many of his later plays.
