Emmanuel Demarcy-Mota
Eugène Ionesco, Rhinoceros
After a gap of six years, Emmanuel Demarcy-Mota revisits, with the same company, a classic work from the Theatre of the Absurd: Ionesco’s Rhinoceros. If Ionesco wrote Rhinoceros as a condemnation of 20th-century totalitarianism in all its forms, Demarcy-Mota reads it today as a parable of enforced conformity, of a tyrantless tyranny – a state of voluntary slavery imposed by our neighbours or even by ourselves. The charging rhinoceroses in his on-stage spectacular are the offspring of the tyrannies of fashion, of the consumer society and of capitalist alienation.
