Othello
Work:: Othello (S4489)
Othello, a Moor, falls in love with Desdemona but is broken by jealousy falsely encouraged. Shakespeare's most human play sets delicacy and power, trust and jealousy, love and hate, good and evil in stark and tragic opposition. Powerless in the face of their own self destructive instincts, the characters are caught on a downward spiral towards inevitable tragedy.
Production:: (T1069018461)
As London's lavish "Casino Venice" celebrates a victory over its fierce competition only slick, experienced General (Manager) Othello can hold it all together. With the added celebration of his marriage to new performer Desdemona, nothing could be happier. Enter Iago, a croupier from the Casino floor and Othello's long term friend; always watching the card counters, always listening in on the poker cheats - he's got Othello's back every time. Except when a promotion arises and Othello suggests another croupier, Cassio, for the job; then Iago has Othello's back for altogether different reasons. Running time: 2hrs
