Written by Eugène Ionesco, Rhinoceros is an absurdist anti-fascist play which uses characters transformations into Rhinoceroses as a metaphor for the evil that was hiding in plain sight during the pre-WWII setting. The first act of this production was in the style of a French children's book, leaning into the absurdism. In the following acts this facade is torn physically and metaphorically away, as the characters reveal through the shedding of layers on stage, that their matching, militaristically green Rhinoceros uniforms were right in view from the beginning.
