2017 Nov 13

Holyoke Community College is proud to recognize Deborah McIntosh, of South Hadley, as a member of HCC's Fall 2017 theater production team for "Rhinoceros" by Eugene Ionesco.

The HCC Theater Department will present the play Nov. 16-18 at 7:30 p.m. with a matinee performance Nov. 18 at 2 p.m. All performances will be held in the Leslie Phillips Theater in HCC's Fine and Performing Arts Building.

The play is being directed by HCC theater professor Tim Cochran with stage design and lighting by theater professor Matthew Whiton.

"Rhinoceros" is a fable about a small town besieged by one roaring citizen who becomes a rhinoceros and proceeds to trample on the social order. As more and more citizens are transformed into rhinoceroses, the trampling becomes overwhelming and more and more people are likewise changed. One sane man, Berenger, remains, unable to change his form and identity.
