Venus In Fur is a one act casting couch comedy about gendered power dynamics with a satisfying dose of kink. With a creative team that includes queer artists who are active and working in the Toronto BDSM and kink scene, this production brings a unique, respectful, and honest perspective as it pertains to Domination and Submission as a healing modality.
