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. Irreverent and razor sharp, this stylish and witty new take on Shakespeare's psychological thriller takes place against the noir backdrop of the 1950s cold war, creating a shadowy tale of passion, secrecy and misdirection.
