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:: (T277136611)
Bahamian blood runs high in a radical and feisty reworking of Shakespeare's classic. In this world of opposites, black is white, freedom is imprisonment, and love, through the distorting prism of jealousy, remains as unpredictable as the ocean. With a Caribbean setting and reverse-race casting, Othello is another exciting collaboration between The Nuffield Theatre and Yellowtale Theatre Company.
