Venus

By Suzan-Lori Parks
Directed by Kathryn Bentley

Metcalf Theater

In 1810, Saartjie Baartman, a member of the Khoi-San peoples of South Africa, was transported to London and Paris, where she was dubbed “The Hottentot Venus,” and put on public display in near nude conditions. Her “act” generated a thriving business.  These facts provide Parks with the opportunity to fashion a drama that concerns itself less with history than with the quirkiness of society. Venus follows Baartman’s experience in Europe - from her departure from Africa to her untimely death in Paris - and finds a most unusual love story between her and her sponsor, the Baron Docteur.

Students can pick up a free ticket from the Fine Arts Box Office in Dunham Hall.
