Harvard-Radcliffe Summer Theater - Rhinoceros, by Eugene Ionesco
Two friends meet for a drink on a quiet day. Business goes about as usual until … a rhinoceros suddenly storms through town square? In this absurdist comedy, rhinoceroses become the talk of the town until the villagers discover the source of the creatures — themselves. A darkly funny commentary on conformity, Rhinocéros demonstrates that heroes come from the unlikely places and that perhaps humans and rhinoceroses aren’t so different after all. Tickets on sale at the Harvard Box Office.
Admission: $12 general, $10 students / seniors
