Over 400 tickets were sold for the Department of English, Theatre, Film & Media's Theatre program's November production of "Rhinoceros" by Eugène Ionesco. The Absurdist play was inspired by Ionesco's experience before and during World War II, where he watched people around him embrace fascism and become Nazis.
In the play, people are transformed into Rhinoceroses. Reason itself is turned on its head as everyone’s energy is spent on anything but confronting the monstrous change in front of them. The play explored themes of conformity, culture, responsibility, logic, mob mentality and morality which still resonate today. Congratulations to the students who produced all aspects of the play, both onstage and backstage.
Mark your calendars for the Theatre program's upcoming production of William Shakespeare's "The Comedy of Errors," directed by Associate Prof. Katrina Dunn. The production runs March 27-31. Tickets are on sale now.
