Venus in Fur by David Ives

Voodoo Theatre Company's production of Venus in Fur by David Ives. Performing July 17th-26th 2026. Intended for ages 18 and up.  In the dim, charged space of a rehearsal room... Two strangers collide in a battle of wit and will, where performance blurs into reality and control shifts with every line. What begins as a simple audition spirals into a seductive game of power, desire, and domination. This provocative exploration of identity and authority unravels the dynamic between a playwright and his unexpected actress, revealing how easily roles can be reversed. Part psychological drama, part darkly playful seduction, Venus in Fur centers the dangerous allure of surrender and control.

Sculptural Paper Casting

Sculptural Paper Casting Nicole Donnelly Friday–Saturday, July 17–18 10am–5pm Book Arts Studio, Marriott Library, Level 4 $225 Register for Sculptural Paper Casting In this two-day workshop, participants learn about three-dimensional paper casting. Beginning with a found or constructed object, participants make simple molds, or an impression in silicone, which resists exposure to water and can be used multiple times to create dimensional paper artwork. After production of the mold, participants use paper pulp and sheets of handmade paper to create casts, or replicas of the original object. The paper cast captures and reproduces fine surface details of the original object, resulting in lightweight and precisely editioned paper sculptures. Nicole Donnelly is a hand papermaker and visual artist serving as Executive Director at the Morgan Conservatory of Papermaking in Cleveland, OH. She founded community accessible studio paperTHINKtank in 2013 and ushered its growth for over ten years in the Philadelphia arts community. She has taught papermaking for over fifteen years, both as a traditional craft and artistic medium, to students of all ages. She served as Collaborative Papermaker to Brandywine Workshop & Archives, the Brodsky Center at PAFA, and now at the Morgan Conservatory. Her creative and academic research has been published by The Legacy Press and Hand Papermaking magazine, and she served as president of IAPMA (International Association of Hand Papermakers and Paper Artists) for seven years. Donnelly's mission is to establish handmade paper as a recognized art medium and preserve its value as a craft.
