Not Bound Within
Venus feels she doesn’t fit in. When she looks in the mirror, she wishes her reflection wasn’t there.
After a traumatic experience with social media, Venus seeks refuge in a long-forgotten museum exhibit. Here she learns about a story of sexual degradation and economic exploitation, and decides she must reveal the truth about Saartjie Baartman – ‘the Hottentot Venus’.
A rehearsed reading followed by a Q&A.
Ages 16+
Wednesday 11 October, 7.30pm
