简介 Introduction
Rhinoceros In Love, China's most successful piece of contemporary theatre, sketches a dark and extreme tale of unrequited love as a rhinoceros-keeper Ma Lu develops a dangerous infatuation with his neighbour, the uncompromising and unobtainable Mingming. A series of increasingly desperate yet consistently futile attempts to impress her culminate in the kidnapping of Mingming and the murder of Ma Lu's his best friend, Tula [the Rhinoceros].
A play in which the bizarre and the grotesque strain the boundaries between tragedy and comedy, Rhinoceros In Love alternates between deep personal drama and lively choral scenes. This synthesis of Chinese humor and modern scenery promises an evening of engaging and emotionally-charged theatre.
