About This Show

Round House Theatre presents The Chairs, by Eugène Ionesco In an English translation by Martin Crimp.

French director Alain Timar restages his acclaimed production of Ionesco’s absurdist play, seen at the 2002 Avignon Festival. His fresh interpretation casts a pair of young actors as an elderly man and woman who organize a reception for a group of imaginary dignitaries. The chairs are assembled, but the guests are invisible!
