What does 'Zot' even mean?


'Zot' is the Anteater victory cheer! It's also the sound that Peter the Anteater makes when he snaps out his tongue to catch his food.

2023-24 Drama Season: Love & Identity

The Bald Soprano

Written by Eugène Ionesco
Directed by Mihai Maniutiu

 

March 9-16, 2024

Robert Cohen Theatre

The Bald Soprano is written by Romanian-French avant-garde playwright Eugène Ionesco and directed by Mihai Maniutiu. Considered an absurdist "anti-play," The Bald Soprano introduces the Smiths, a traditional, middle-class English couple who have invited the Martins—a similar couple—over for a visit. The two couples exchange rote, elliptical, nonsensical dialogue and are occasionally joined by Mary, the Smiths' housemaid, and the Fire Chief—Mary's former lover. Director Maniutiu explores the relationship between humor and absurdist theatre in this exciting new production.

Approximate run time:
1 hour 15 minutes with no intermission

Please note this show contains:

  • Flashing/strobe lights
  • Sudden, loud sound effects including gunfire
  • Depictions of characters shot with a gun

Generous support for this production is provided by the Robert and Lorna Cohen Endowment for Excellence in Drama, Theatre Guild, and Claire Trevor Society.
