About the Show

A small town is besieged by one roaring citizen who becomes a rhinoceros and proceeds to trample on the social order. As more citizens are transformed into rhinoceroses, the trampling becomes overwhelming. One sane man, Berenger, remains, unable to change his form and identity. The sublime is confused with the ridiculous in this savage commentary on the human condition.
