About the show
The Black Hole, written by Vkinn Vats and produced by Shooting Star Studios, is a psychological drama set in a shared space where two souls are forced to coexist. The emotional distance between them surfaces deeper wounds as desire and trauma collide, turning quiet moments into explosive confrontations. Exploring raw vulnerability and twisted intimacy, the play asks what it truly means to be seen — and what we risk when we expose ourselves. At theSpace @ Venue 45, 55 minutes, strictly for audiences aged 18 and over.
Why see this show?
A taut, two-hander drama built on the uncomfortable weight of proximity — desire and trauma sharing the same room. At 55 minutes it doesn't outstay its welcome, and the questions it raises about vulnerability and connection are genuinely unsettling.
