About the Show
Thomas, a director in a bind, is desperate to find an actress to play the female lead in his adaptation of the classic sadomasochistic tale
Venus in Fur. Enter Vanda, a vulgar and equally desperate actress. Though, on the surface, she is utterly wrong for the part, she authoritatively and seductively masters it. As they work through the script, a game of domination and submission plays out with only enough room for one of them to win. This mysterious, charmingly erotic and acclaimed work is a high point in David Ives’ diverse body of work.
