Tony-nominated for her Broadway debut last spring in Born Yesterday,
Nina Arianda returns to the role that first brought her acclaim — Vanda, a
struggling actress in David Ives' two-hander Venus in Fur. This
sexually-charged comedy pits Vanda against Thomas (Hugh Dancy), an author
and director who auditions Vanda for a role in his newest work, a play based
on an 1870s novel by German author Leopold von Sacher-Masoch, for whom
"masochism" is named. The darkly erotic scenarios of the audition cause the
seemingly naïve actress to ultimately gain total dominance over the
director. For more, click here.
