I read this play largely because it's friend and past director's favorite and I need some strong female roles to use for monologues. I loved this play. It's fascinating, kind of kinky, and mind-blowing. I was enthralled from the first page and just got more and more involved. It's one act, though it's still pretty long, and two actors are onstage the entire time. It's really quite fascinating. I wouldn't recommend it for pleasure reading unless you know you like to read plays. To be fair, I did purchase the acting edition, so there might be more fluff to make it more palatable to a layperson. I'm very happy with this play and I can't wait for a chance to pick it up again. ( ) 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. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

"In David Ives's seductive, darkly funny Venus in Fur, a playwright-director, Thomas, has written an adaptation of Leopold von Sacher-Masoch's classic erotic novel Venus in Fur, the story of an obsessive relationship between a man and the mistress to whom he becomes enslaved. At the end of a long day in which the actress Thomas auditions fail to impress him, in walks Vanda, very late and seemingly clueless, but she convinces him to give her a chance. As they perform scenes from Thomas's play, the lines between writer, actor, director, and character begin to blur."--P. [4] of cover. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
