Rhino: Act II Spring 2021 Production

A PNW Virtual Performance

In a law office, several employees argue over the news that a rhinoceros is trampling through the town square. Is this true? Is it a hoax? Although Eugene Ionesco wrote this play in 1959, in our world it can be challenging to understand if something is a conspiracy, a fact, an alternative fact, or a delusion. This play explores ideas of mob mentality, cultural conformity, mass movements and fascism.
