Who will join the herd? Who will resist? When a brutish rhinoceros storms through their quiet neighborhood, the townsfolk are alarmed, but soon become infected with the “rhino virus,” 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.
