...Saddam Hussein (he has a gay affair with Satan and toys shamelessly with the Horned One's affections); Barbra Streisand (for all the old reasons); Liza Minnelli (don't ask); and God (who is vilified by one of the movie's guest kid heroes). Also anyone who lacks a bottomless tolerance for inspired comic rudeness...

From beginning to end he imbues the play with a seemingly bottomless paranoic energy. This reaches its climax in the final, frightening soliloquy in which he attempts himself to become a rhinoceros, and failing, realizes he must resign himself to his uniqueness, his monstrosity, his humanity...
