After months of anticipation, rehearsals, and whispers of the king’s imminent demise, the moment is finally here. EXIT THE KING opens this weekend!

King Bérenger has just been told he is going to die at the end of the show, making for a wildly funny, strangely moving existential fever dream.

This absurdist French cult classic is the hidden gem of our season. And because productions of it are so rare, this may be your one chance to see it!

The kingdom is falling apart, and the vibe is ✨UNHINGED CHAOS.✨ King Berenger has just learned he is going to die in 90 minutes… and he’s insisting he’s fine… perfectly fine… never better actually.

Eugène Ionesco’s EXIT THE KING is a wildly funny absurdist spectacle packed with dark comedy, razor-sharp wit, and the most entertaining theatrical meltdown ever staged.

THEATRE OF THE ABSURD: nothing makes sense, and that’s the point. Lea explains… in clown makeup… don’t ask.

Next on Stage: Eugene Ionescos’s EXIT THE KING, translated by Donald Watson. The king is dying in 90 minutes and he’s absolutely not taking it well! 🤷‍♂️
