This collection of three plays by a pioneer of the theatre of the absurd offers a unique blend of tragedy and humor, bleakness and farce. In “Rhinoceros,” the transformation of people into rhinoceroses reveals the darker aspects of human nature. “The Chairs” portrays the desperate attempt of two elderly individuals to share life’s meaning with the world, while “The Lesson” presents a darkly comedic exploration of verbal power. These ‘antiplays’ use dreamlike elements and absurdity to present a strange and thought-provoking reflection on society.
