The Department of Theatre presents The Bald Soprano
by Eugene Ionesco and directed by Colette Searls. Join
us for a night of absurdity at the Smith residence, where
guests forget their own names and clocks refuse to tell
time. This first of Ionesco’s celebrated absurdist
plays wickedly satires the emptiness of life lived by
habit. Shoe-tying reveals itself as a bizarre spectacle
and showy doorbells ring by themselves as the Smiths and
Martins trip through the horrors of disorder and nonsense.
