EXTENDED!
Now running through July 10th due to popular demand!

Inspired by Leopold von Sacher-Masoch’s notorious erotic novel (which first shocked readers in 1870), Venus in Fur is a crackling exploration of desire and control. David Ives’s saucy and sensational play pits actress against playwright in a virtuosic display of seduction, cruelty, and gamesmanship.
