About the production
A quiet town is thrown into chaos when its residents begin turning into rhinoceroses. Eugene Ionesco’s absurdist comedy explores conformity, fascism, and the pressure to follow the crowd. The Catastrophic Theatre production is directed by Tamarie Cooper and stars George Parker and Kyle Sturdivant, returning to their roles from the company’s 2017 staging.
Performances take place in MATCH’s Matchbox 3. Runtime is 2 hours and 45 minutes, including one intermission. Recommended for ages 12 and older. General admission tickets are pay-what-you-can, with a $5 box office support fee per ticket at checkout.
