VOYEURS DE VENUS

Kick starting season 10 is VOYEURS DE VENUS by Lydia R. Diamond and directed by Summer L. Williams, the very same folks who brought you last fall's critically- acclaimed, sold-out run of Toni Morrison's THE BLUEST EYE.  From Huntington Playwriting fellow Diamond, this dazzling Boston premiere follows Sara, an African-American scholar of pop culture trying to write a book about Saartjie Baartman, better known as the 19th-century sideshow sensation The Hottentot Venus. As the two women's worlds collide, Sara faces a struggle: can she reveal the truth about Saartjie and still write a bestseller? While Sara navigates a treacherous course involving her white husband and her black lover - who is also her publisher - she is forced to confront her own racial identity. Sexy, bold and dan­gerous, VOYEURS DE VENUS is sure to be one of the season's most piercing dramas.
