Ionesco’s Rhinoceros and Other Plays turns existential dread into dark comedy. In a small town where everyone slowly transforms into rhinoceroses, absurdity becomes prophecy — a warning against the seduction of conformity and the ease of moral surrender. Through language that breaks and mutates, Ionesco shows how reason collapses under mass hysteria, leaving only the stubborn, lonely act of staying human.
