Vengeance Can Wait

Written by up and coming Japanese playwright Yukiko Motoya, Vengeance Can Wait is a kinky comedy about love, submission, and sweet revenge by one of Japan’s leading contemporary
female playwrights.

Influenced by anime and manga (Japanese graphic novels and comic books), Vengeance Can Wait navigates Japanese sub-culture as it charts a different kind of love story. A couple has the perfect domestic relationship: he spends his days planning the perfect revenge, while she awaits her perfect punishment. Dark, twisted and touching, the couple come to understand the “kinks” in their relationship – and embrace them.
