Venus Chastising Cupid

Cupid has been causing trouble all over Mount Olympus, flirting with nymphs and shooting her arrows at people she shouldn’t. Just yesterday she was caned by her father Mars, the god of war – but somehow the bright, sore welts on her pert bottom don’t seem to have taught her a lesson.

Venus might be the goddess of love, but she’s also a despairing mother – and not at all a fan of her most sacred ideal being spread about willy-nilly. She’s left with no choice but to take her daughter over her lap and give her a thorough dose of divine punishment, right on top of the livid cane-marks from the night before.

Cupid is left to wriggle and squirm, pouting unhappily as Venus is struck by the notion of whipping her with one of her own misused arrows. Maybe this time the naughty little fairy will see the error of her ways?

Or, then again, maybe not…

Our wonderful performers play out an ancient story: a hard hand spanking for Cupid from her mother Venus, to make up for all manner of divine mischief!
