Sir Laurence Olivier. Orson Welles. Vivien Leigh. Joan Plowright. Kenneth Tynan. When these champions of the theatre get together to rehearse Ionesco’s Rhinoceros, mere mortals best step aside. With lightning wit and scathing understanding into the accurate character of genius, Austin Pendleton’s new play opens the private worlds of these very public people, revealing their warmth, their egos, and their glittering madness.

An L.A. Theater Works full-cast performance offering Caroline Goodall, Glenne Headly, Martin Jarvis, Robert Machray, Orlando Seale and Simon Templeman.
