Performed in the Helms Theatre, on Grounds at U.Va.


By Eugene Ionesco

Translated by Derek Prouse

Directed by Marianne Kubik

One of the most iconic works in the absurdist theater movement, Eugene Ionesco’s Rhinoceros puts mindless conformity firmly in its crosshairs in response to seemingly unchecked rise of Nazism and Fascism. When residents of a small village begin transforming into rhinoceroses, only one man is able to resist the urge and retain his own individuality and integrity against the pull of mass culture. This funny, bizarre, and biting satire is a cautionary tale for all eras.
