In an online gaming world designed to resemble a quaint French village, a rampaging rhinoceros strikes terror. The chaos escalates when the virtual villagers begin sprouting horns and transforming into rhinos themselves. Amidst this turmoil, Berenger emerges as an unlikely hero. As the irresistible allure of the stampede intensifies, a crucial question arises: Can Berenger resist the Rhino’s magnetic pull, or will he succumb to conformity?
Through a dynamic blend of physical theatre and multimedia/sound design, RHINO is sure to cement itself as a landmark piece of this year's theatrical calendar, one that will leave you reflecting long after the lights have faded.
