THE KILLER,  By Eugne Ionesco, Newly Translated:Michael Feingold; Direction: Darko Tresnjak

Featuring Michael Shannon.

Valid for performances May 17- June 22

A searing and darkly funny parable about violence and resistance, IonescosThe Killer premiered in Paris in 1959 and has become a modern classic of the Theatre of the Absurd. Berenger, Ionesco's cheerful, well-meaning everyman, discovers a radiant city near his dismal urban home, a perpetually sunny, impeccably clean place full of marvelous architecture and delicious food. The one hitch: a serial murderer has been brazenly killing people there for so long that the authorities have given up trying to catch him.
