When a rhinoceros charges across the town square one Sunday afternoon, Bérenger thinks nothing of it. Soon, however, rhinoceroses are popping up everywhere and Bérenger's whole world is under threat. What will it take for him to stand up against the increasing menace of rhinocerisation? Martin Crimp's translation of Ionesco's iconic satire on mindlessness and conformity was staged at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in September 2007.

Eugène Ionesco, born Eugen Ionescu, was a Romanian playwright and dramatist; one of the foremost playwrights of the Theatre of the Absurd. Beyond ridiculing the most banal situations, Ionesco's plays depict in a tangible way the solitude and insignificance of human existence. Excerpted from Wikipedia.
