"The Trump Era Has Transformed Theatrical Absurdity Into Near-Reality:..The subversive power of theater is that it can make us laugh in the face of real existential threats. And that laughter, with any luck, can turn into change. So it is worth paying attention to this convergence-continuum production..." (Christine Howey, Scene)
When a brutish rhinoceros storms through their quiet neighborhood, the townsfolk are alarmed, but gradually become supporters of rhino-ism and one by one begin to turn into rhinoceroses themselves. Will the few hold-outs be able to resist the rhino’s despicable impulses, or become part of the mindless herd? A classic absurdist comedy that is a parable that remains universal and particularly timely today.
RHINOCEROS is directed by Jonathan Wilhelm and features actors Tom Kondilas, Mike Frye, Kayla Gray, Joe Milan, David Munnell, Jeanne Task, Rocky Encalada, Natalyn Baisden and Kim Woodworth.
RHINOCEROS has its final three performances this Thurs-Sat at 8 pm at con-con’s Liminis Theater, 2438 Scranton Rd,
Cleveland 44113 in the historic Tremont neighborhood.
