Rhinoceros is a play in three acts by Romanian-French playwright Eugène Ionesco, written in 1959. The play is a critique of conformity and totalitarianism, exploring how people can transform into irrational beasts when they are carried away by collective hysteria and dominant ideology. Set in a small town, the plot follows the sudden transformation of its inhabitants into rhinoceroses, a phenomenon that symbolizes the spread of conformity and the loss of individuality. The protagonist, Bérenger, struggles to maintain his humanity amidst this chaos, representing resistance against dehumanization and the importance of personal authenticity.
