2024 Season
Venus in Fur
DECEMBER 12 - 14
KIT Live
This Tony Award-winning play, written by David Ives, is a sexy, dark comedy and a psychological drama. It tells the story of playwright-director Thomas Novachek, and actress, Vanda Jordan, who is auditioning for a role in Thomas’ new play that he adapted from the erotic 1870 novel 'Venus in Fur' which explores themes of dominance and submission. The plot unfolds in a single setting: a rehearsal room. Thomas is frustrated after a long day of unsuccessful auditions when Vanda arrives, seemingly unsuited for the role. However, as the audition progresses, Vanda proves to be remarkably well-prepared, embodying the character with an uncanny precision. The lines between reality and fiction blur as they delve deeper into the script, revealing their vulnerabilities and desires. Venus in Fur scrutinizes the complexities of consent, control, and manipulation, offering a provocative exploration of power and submission. Join us this December for this seriously smart and electrifying play AND the official opening of OTC's new theatre space at the KIT (Royal Institute of the Tropics)!​​
