As more citizens are transformed into rhinoceroses, the trampling becomes overwhelming. One sane man, Berenger, remains, unable to change his form and identity. The sublime is confused with the ridiculous in this savage commentary on the human condition.<\/p>\n<p>Accessible seating is available in limited quantity, please email Eric Gomez, VPAC Events Coordinator at <a href=\"mailto:gomeze@wcsu.edu\">gomeze@wcsu.edu<\/a> to inquire about accessible seating.
