Details

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. Transporting audiences to the hot and heady streets of Venice and Cyprus, this new production of Shakespeare’s intimate and affecting drama will be performed in-the-round, in a unique staging on the lawn, drawing audiences closer to the action and focusing on clear storytelling as the drama unfolds under the evening sky.
