Rhinoceros to be Presented at Cerro Coso This Week

May 3, 2010

Cerro Coso Community College Theatre Department is proud to present Rhinoceros by Eugene Ionesco, Friday, May 7th and Saturday, May 8th at 7:00 p.m. and Sunday, May 9th at 2:00 p.m. in the Lecture Center.

What happens when the normal routine of a small French town is shattered by the trumpeting of a rhinoceros? This play follows such a situation as a man named Berenger (played by Joshua Haefele) discusses with his neighbors, coworkers, best friend, Jean (Thomas Cozine), and the object of his affection, Daisy (Heather Blanchard), the absurd situation of a rhinoceros rampaging through the town one Sunday morning. Was there only one? Were there two? Was it an African or Asiatic rhinoceros? Does it have one horn or two? Where did it come from? And why does there seem to be fewer people than pachyderms?

Join Berenger, Jean, Daisy, and the rest of this talented cast as they try to navigate day-to-day life surrounded by rampant rhinoceroses. Will they capitulate? What would it take? Rhinoceros will be performed in the CCCC Lecture Center Friday, May 7th and Saturday, May 8th at 7:00 p.m. and Sunday, May 9th at 2:00 p.m.

Tickets are available at the CCCC Business Office and Red Rock Books for $6 General Admission and $5 for students, seniors, and military. Do you have it takes?
