Nach einem langen Tag voller Castings ist der Pariser Theaterregisseur Thomas (Mathieu Amalric) kurz davor, alles hinzuwerfen. Keine der Schauspielerinnen, die sich ihm präsentieren, entspricht seinen Vorstellungen. Dann taucht Vanda (Emmanuelle Seigner) auf. Vanda scheint all das zu verkörpern, was Thomas zutiefst verabscheut: Sie ist naiv und einfältig, und würde vor nichts zurückschrecken, um die Rolle zu bekommen. Nur sehr widerwillig läss...

David was thunder struck when at age 17 he visited South America. Harsh poverty of Brazilian favelas presented a patchwork of tin and corn stalks cobbled together as homes. A family of five would share the only double bed mattress on the hovel floor. Drinking, washing, and sewer water emanated from a single source. Shanties stretched to the horizon. David's tears were mixed with the realization of the inequities in life. This was his pivotal m...

Venus in Fur is an intoxicating dark comedy of desire, fantasy and the innate love of fur. An exploration of gender roles and sexuality, in which desire twists and turns in on itself, Venus in Fur is also a witty, unsettling look at the art of acting-onstage and off.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve ...

Adapted from Molière's The Misanthrope, David Ives's The School for Lies tells the comic tale of Frank, who shares with Molière's Alceste a venomous hatred of the hypocrisy that surrounds him. Like his predecessor, Frank gets into trouble for insulting the work of a dreadful poet and falls in love with Celimene, a witty widow. In Ives's madcap version, however, Celimene returns Frank's affection because she wrongly believes him to be King Loui...

Thomas è un regista teatrale tormentato alla disperata ricerca di un'attrice che interpreti Wanda, la protagonista femminile di un classico della letteratura erotica, "Venere in pelliccia". Alla fine di una giornata di provini deludenti, nella sala ormai vuota entra una donna: indossa dei tacchi vertiginosi, sotto il soprabito fradicio di pioggia è vestita di cuoio e borchie. E si chiama Wanda. È una donna volgare e sboccata, troppo ignorante ...

The world according to David Ives is a very add place, and his plays constitute a virtual stress test of the English language -- and of the audience's capacity for disorientation and delight. Ives's characters plunge into black holes called "Philadelphias, " where the simplest desires are hilariously thwarted. Chimps named Milton, Swift, and Kafka are locked in a room and made to re-create Hamlet. And a con man peddles courses in a dubious lan...
