David Ives' Sexy Venus in Fur Will Be the Most Performed Play in America This Year

According to American Theatre magazine, the most performed play in the country during the upcoming 2013-2014 theater season will be David Ives' Venus in Fur. When it played on Broadway in 2011-2012, this sexy comedy starred Hugh Dancy and Nina Arianda, who won a Tony for her performance.

Venus in Fur follows a talented young actress who is determined to land the lead in a new play based on the classic erotic novel Venus in Fur. Her emotionally charged audition for the gifted but demanding playwright/director becomes an electrifying game of cat and mouse that blurs the lines between fantasy and reality.

The runners-up for the title of most performed play will be Bruce Norris' Clybourne Park, David Lindsay-Abaire's Good People, and Jon Robin Baitz's Other Desert Cities.
