    About this ebook

    ‘You don’t have to tell me about sadomasochism. I’m in the theatre.’

    Enigmatic actress Vanda Jordan appears unannounced for an audition with director Thomas Novachek. She’s determined to land the leading role in his new production – despite seeming wrong for the part. Over one evening in downtown Manhattan their charged meeting becomes a seductive dance to the end. Intoxicating, erotic, highly charged, Venus In Fur is a dark comedy about desire, fantasy, and love.

      Smart, sexy power play. Review to come.
    • 4/5
      A play based (loosely) on an eighteenth century novel. The characters are presented as an actress and a director that are in audition for a play based on the novel Venus in Fur, and the resulting relationship that develops during the course of the audition begins to mimic the play-within-a-play. A slight twist at the end lends an interesting finish.
