Sexy. Provocative. Hilarious.
Hailed by The New York Times as “seriously smart and very funny,” Venus in Fur is a provocative, two-person powerhouse that blurs the lines between reality and fantasy, dominance and submission.

Venus in Fur marks the third production part of our ETC NEXT programming, a series dedicated to presenting bold, edgy, and thought-provoking theatre that pushes boundaries and delivers compelling, dynamic storytelling.
