  • I am very glad to find that a few people actually found this thing helpful. If you are looking for another contribution to the Ionesco culture, I understand that the movie "Zombie Strippers" is a loose adaptation of the play. Apparently the club is call "The Rhino." I have not been brave enough to watch it for myself yet.

  • Hmm well, the info came from the people I put it together for. The pronunciation came from teacher who assigned the project.

    I can't really say much for the accent.

  • this is probably one of the best introductions to a play and it's playwright I have ever encountered on the internet. If you can, please make more of these. They're entertaining and insightful.

  • This was very informative.

    This play was referenced very subtly in the movie "Zombie Strippers" with Jenna Jameson, where strippers in a strip club all slowly conform to become zombies; the zombie strippers outperform the human strippers, creating the urge for the strippers to get bitten by a zombie.

    The strip club manager's name was "Mr. Ian Essko", referencing Ionesco, and one of the strippers' names was Berengé.
