About the Show
KCS is making history this Fall with two shows! Miss Julie
and Venus in Fur in REPERTORY. TWO PLAYS. ONE CAST. ONE STAGE. A bold pairing of August Strindberg’s searing classic Miss Julie and David Ives’ seductive dark comedy Venus in Fur — two riveting explorations of power, desire, and control, sharing the stage for the first time, playing on alternate nights.
Miss Julie's frank portrayal of desire, dominance, and social upheaval shattered theatrical conventions. Strindberg’s naturalistic masterpiece stripped away artifice to expose human behavior in its most primal form — changing the stage forever.
Venus in Fur is “90 minutes of good, kinky fun.” — The New York Times. The dark comedy that thrilled Broadway — and turned seduction into a mind game. A weary playwright-director is wrapping up a long day of auditions when she walks in — bold, unpredictable, and perfect for the role. What begins as a simple reading spirals into a charged battle of power, gender, and desire.
