Venus by Suzan-Lori Parks

Sat, Oct 21, 2023 2pm to 4pm

Wolfe Center for the Arts, Eva Marie Saint Theatre

Varies
  In 1810, The Venus Hottentot (as she is dubbed)—a young black woman with an enormous posterior—is lured away from her menial job in South Africa to tour the world and make lots of money. Once in England, however, she is sold to a freak show and becomes a star. She shows off her attribute, bringing in crowds and raking in money for the side show owners. Quickly becoming adept at displaying herself and understanding what the people want from her as a freak, she even tries to break out on her own, but can’t quite master that in those social times. Eventually, she is procured by a white doctor who is more than fascinated with her. He falls in love with her and keeps her as his mistress until he is in danger of losing his medical reputation and social standing. Venus, who journeyed to Europe with high hopes, at the end of her short life, was dissected by the man she loved. (Dramatist Play Service)   Winner:  1995-1996 OBIE Award for Playwriting for Suzan-Lori Parks
