WHO SAYS ROMANCE IS DEAD? WELL…
SYNOPSIS

Breakups are never fun. It’s easy to romanticize all of the good times: star-gazing, waxing poetic about literature, that instant spark the first time your hands brushed. It’s even easier to forget about all of the bad times, like when they ghosted you after the perfect first date, or that one time you woke up in a shallow grave. From the brilliant mind behind Mercury and Pluto, Atlanta’s own Steve Yockey brings us another celestial, pitch-black comedy where two women learn that true love isn’t the only thing that bonds two people together…forever.
THE WHY

“Steve Yockey’s work often walks a delicate balance of fiendish comedy and real heart. Venus captures so bitingly the complexities of love and connection in the modern world.” – Freddie
