Killing Game

In a typical city on an idyllic afternoon, a pair of infant twins turn purple, black and suddenly die. When it is announced to the inhabitants of the city that a mysterious plague with no foreseeable cure has transcended upon their city killing at random, fear spreads faster than the contagious epidemic, mass hysteria ensues, and no one is safe. In seventeen wryly hilarious and poignant scenes Ionesco illuminates the simple truth that in a world full of terror, religious and political strife, and a multitude of contagious injustices "fear is what they have to cure first".Bringing the absurd world of the play to life, (and a record-breaking 95 characters to their imminent deaths), the designers of Killing Game are Chris Covics (sets & lights), John Zalewski (sound), and Diana Wyenn (costumes).
