QNYC Event Highlight: Venus and Mona

Image Source: Variations Theatre Group

Venus and Mona are twins. They are also young, strong, hard-edged…and trapped on the roof of their mother’s mobile home. Although their mother is at death’s door, the sisters wage war on one another while a demon circles the trailer, hoping that one of the combatants will slip and fall into his clutches. This play, which runs until March 30, is part of Variations Theatre Group‘s first season at the newly opened Chain Theatre. Venus and Mona also marks the first production to come out of the Minor Variations Project, which brings a second life to a play by taking an already realized work and through collaboration between the playwright and actors, retools the piece.
