On Sunday morning, somewhere in a little French town, a rhinoceros stomps down the street. What can be done in such a situation? Who should be called? Or should it even be dealt with at all? The eccentric Bérenger is so hungover that he can’t be bothered with it, but later he can’t stop thinking about it, because there are more and more rhinoceroses. They are slowly flooding the whole town. Some say there is something naturally innocent about them. But who knows how long something can remain natural, and where does the unnatural begin? What is normal and what is abnormal? Are rhinos beautiful or ugly? Is morality superior to nature? Is it better to fall in line or remain alone in the world?

We don’t recommend this performance for people under the age of 16.
