Rhinoceros by Eugène Ionesco

Rhinoceros

February 27, 28  @ 8:00PM

March 1, 2, 3 @ 8:00PM

March 4 @ 2:00PM

The sublime is confused with the ridiculous in this savage commentary on the human condition. A small town is besieged by one roaring citizen who finds himself turning into a rhinoceros and who proceeds to trample on the social order. As with any “disease”, more citizens become infected. "An allegory for our times." - The New York Times   "It’s satirical humor, combined with its provocative theme and surprisingly moving ending, results in an evening that is strange, disturbing and arresting." - New York Post
